The UNC Charlotte Botanical Gardens in McMillan, NC, offer a serene and educational environment for visitors to explore a diverse range of plant collections and gardens. Founded in 1966 by Dr. Herbert Hechenbleikner, the gardens aim to inspire a love for plants and nature through various programming, classes, and botanical displays.

With a mission to showcase both native and non-native plants that thrive in the Carolina Piedmont region, the gardens feature unique sections like the Susie Harwood Garden and the Van Landingham Glen. Visitors can enjoy a peaceful stroll through the outdoor gardens during daylight hours and explore the Greenhouse on weekdays for a deeper botanical experience.
