Visitors to Seaside Botanical Gardens are invited to tour our beautiful 4+ acre botanical wonderland. Twelve garden vignettes provide an around-the-world sampling of plants that thrive in our coastal environment. The gardens were designed by local landscape designers and include Asian, Australian, California Natives, Central/South American, Grasslands, Mediterranean, Native Wetland Bioswale, Perennial/Cottage, South African, Succulents, and Tropical themes. The new Artists Palette rose garden provides a place to relax and let the senses enjoy the beauty of nature! Guests come away with design ideas as well as a better understanding of plant growth habits. For a virtual tour, go to Garden Map on this website and click on individual gardens!
At Seaside Gardens retail nursery, friendly and knowledgeable staff are on hand to answer questions and help customers find the perfect additions to their gardens. We offer a variety of plants found growing in our botanical garden (this is somewhat seasonal), as well as new varieties of exotic and unusual plant species. Pottery, fountains, planted containers, and bird baths are an excellent way to accent the garden, soften a pathway, or enliven a patio. The Garden Shop offers soils, amendments, nutrients, gardening tools, pond and fountain supplies, planters, bird feeders, trellis' and more. The Gift Shop is a fun place to find an unusual gift of glassware, candles, soaps, hats, books, etc.
Whether shopping or just out for a stroll in the garden, we welcome all visitors to Seaside Botanical Gardens and Seaside Gardens.
