K-State Gardens
The Gardens at Kansas State University are a horticulture display garden that was established as an educational resource and learning laboratory for K-State students and the visiting public.
Live. Learn. Bloom.
The Gardens have been a part of Kansas State University campus since 1875. They were developed and are still used as an outdoor lab for students and faculty. Through time, the Gardens grew into a beautiful horticulture display garden and so much more. The Gardens are a place for the university community and the visiting public from near and far to find beauty, peace and joy.
