Foster Botanical Garden

The Foster Botanical Garden (one of a few Honolulu Botanical Gardens), is located on the island of Oahu in Hawaii. Any pictures or videos about Hawaii being paradise don't do justice to the beauty and the Garden of Eden atmosphere found at Foster Botanical Garden. In 1930, the City and County of Honolulu donated land for the creation of the garden, which opened to the public on November 30, 1931. Since then, it has grown to over 13 acres from the original 5.5 acres of the garden. Also, many other gardens have been started around it, adding to the botanical appeal of the area.

Foster Botanical Garden is home to several 'sub-gardens' spread over the land. From a prehistoric garden to an area dedicated to orchids (something Foster Botanical Garden is well known for all over the world) to an economic garden,

Foster Garden is home to an absolutely stunning collection of plants and flowers from all over the world, which makes it a big draw for people who love flowers. And as mentioned, Foster's has some prize winning orchid collections, which is a draw for even more people.

Whether you have a passing appreciation for flowers or you grow your own and like to see what other people have been able to achieve, a visit to Foster Botanical Garden is something that's highly recommended if you're in Honolulu. While one of the other nearby garden's might be more to your liking, Foster Botanical Garden has a rich and cultured history in the area. A lot of botanical wizardry has gone into making it one of the world's finest gardens, a showcase of the beauty possible when man meets nature halfway and they dance together.
