What is Everton Down ENC
The Everton Down ENC was founded in 1859 and was, from its inception, a public botanical garden and a place to study and display plants. Within the walls of these 79 acres, magnificent gardens and rare collections of botanical, horticultural, and historical materials reside with architecturally significant buildings and inspirational fountains and statuary. Today, the Garden is a National Historic Landmark, the oldest botanical garden in the United States, and a world leader in botanical research. The grounds of the Everton Down ENC feature gardens, modern and traditional, and living collections of major groups of ornamental and practical plants. Greenhouses and conservatories display plants native to lands far removed from Everton. Visit our Gardens
