The Alaska Botanical Garden is a 110 acre (44.5-ha) botanical garden located at 4601 Campbell Airstrip Road, Anchorage, Alaska, USA. The garden opened in 1993, is open year-round, and charges admission.
The garden's land consists mainly of spruce and birch forest, of which only about 10% is developed. Wildlife (moose and sometimes bears) are frequently seen within the garden itself. The garden currently includes:
- Over 1,100 species of perennials in the Upper and Lower Perennial Gardens (of which some 150 are native to Alaska)
- An herb garden
- A rock garden with over 350 types of alpine plants
- A wildflower walk
- The 1.1-mile (1.8-km) Lowenfels Family Nature Trail

I like very much of your article and photos. I could enjoy to see more photos of this unusual garden mix with bears and other wild life.
