Shop

Nestled at the entrance to the UBC Botanical Garden, the Shop in the Garden features unique treasures for gardeners and black thumbs alike. The Shop in the Garden showcases a diverse selection of gardening and botanical books, handy garden tools and accessories, distinctive gifts, dried flower arrangements. The Plant Centre offers seasonal choice selections of perennials, shrubs and vines for the garden and patio.

Of special note to gardeners seeking hard-to-find or unusual plants, the Shop in the Garden supplies seeds from plants in the UBC Botanical Garden. Hand-picked by the Friends of the Garden, the seeds are cleaned and packaged. Labels containing growing information are affixed to the packages before the seed packets are made available for sale.

The Shop in the Garden and Plant Centre is operated by the garden's volunteers, the Friends of the UBC Botanical Garden. All proceeds from the Shop in the Garden and 100% of the purchase price of the seeds fund research, education, and garden improvements at the UBC Botanical Garden.

All members of the University of British Columbia Botanical Garden receive a 10% discount at the Shop in the Garden.
