The Roger Williams Park Botanical Center is located in Roger Williams Park in Providence, Rhode Island. It opened in March 2007. It includes two connected greenhouses filled with plants, fountains, a fish pond and a small waterfall. It is the largest indoor garden open to the public in New England, encompassing approximately 12,000 square feet of indoor gardens. The Botanical Center includes two greenhouses: The Conservatory and the Mediterranean Room. There are over 150 different species and cultivars of plants including 17 different types of palms. All the plants, with the exception of the large palm trees, were installed by park personnel. Many of the plants were saved from the old greenhouse displays and replanted, specifically most of the Cacti, Agave and Aloe.

This is a nice cost effective place to stop at with plenty of cool plants to look at. I went in the winter so there wasn't much to see outside, but I thoroughly enjoyed the greenhouses.

The Botanical Garden is New England’s largest glasshouse display garden and includes 40′ tall palms, carnivorous plants, 10′ cacti, and succulents. Their Rose Maze is in bloom from June through September.

The entire park complex is amazing, and we think a visit here is one of the best things to do in Providence, RI!
