The story of the Myriad Botanical Gardens began in 1964 with the vision of oil and gas pioneer Dean A. McGee (Kerr-McGee Corporation). Thanks to McGee's generous corporate citizenship and ambitious vision for revitalizing downtown Oklahoma City the Myriad Botanical Gardens opened on March 25, 1988.

Today the Myriad Botanical Gardens is a 17-acre, nationally recognized garden featuring an architectural treasure, the Crystal Bridge Tropical Conservatory – an amazing 224-foot long circular jungle graced with towering palm trees, exotic plantings, crashing waterfalls and abundant animal life.

The Myriad Botanical Gardens continues to thrive thanks to support from the Myriad Gardens Foundation, the City of Oklahoma City and a large group of dedicated volunteers. Come grow with us!
