For clarity's sake of this review I must say that I was attending a special event there in the evening in the auditorium. It was a KUT symposium on landscaping and how we can use that to prevent climate change and adverse effects to our city with the incorporation of more green spaces, green roofs and pocket prairies along with the use of alternatives to lawns.
The facility itself is quite impressive and very well kept. It has a wonderful spacious layout and a lot of beautiful yet organic feeling design work. The auditorium itself is quite impressive with its seating and ability to host a large group for the audio-visual movie presentations or for hosting a symposium type situation .
The staff that was there was quite friendly and very professional and everything went according to plan and schedule. The gardens in the evening with the Twilight into darkness time was very beautiful to see also. The lighting is pretty and tasteful, yet not overly bright or ostentatious. For this special event hosting, I have to highly recommend the Lady Bird Johnson wildflower center and award them a five-star review.
really enjoy the holiday lighting stuff they do. This year was kind of tough because a lot of the lights weren’t working, and they seemed to reduce the total number of the slaves, but it was still really fun.
Went for Luminations. Totally worth it on a week day! Fun interactions and displays. About a mile walking, but easy going on flat ground. Can't wait to come back in the spring!
Beautiful area with such a wonderful assortment of plants and flowers. Great for a morning walk or time out with family.
Next time I'm going to try and work my way through the trails.
Fortlandia is always a great time!! My kiddos love to explore. We love the open fields and kids activities! Beautiful flowers! We like the ability to see reptiles and bugs along the paths too! Worth the membership!

Luminations is a holiday tradition at the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center where interactive art exhibits become fun light displays to enjoy. This year all the exhibits were new except the popular light circular swings. You need to make a reservation to attend and can pay extra to park at the center, but if you get there early then plenty of parking along the street.
The place is well organized and nicely decorated where you walk in a big circle on their grounds checking out each display. The gift shop is open and will find two places to get food and snacks where one was the cafe and the other food trucks and pop-up bar.
We went on a Sunday night and It was just another great experience to walk around seeing the displays and enjoying some treats. It was not very crowded so can enjoy your romantic stroll.

The Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center is located at Circle C Ranch and on this visit Fortlandia 2022-23 was going on. Every years designers create interesting fort designs where kids can enjoy. They are very creative and artistic. It was early January where won't see any wildflowers blooming but will see other plants. The place is loaded with walking trails and a place to bird watch or spot native wildlife. There is a Lucy and Ian Family Garden where kids can play and experience nature. There is free parking, a store and cafe on site.
Came here during quarantine and was happy for the pick me up. I was happy to see that people in Austin know and enjoy this place regularly. The extensive amount of flora and knowledgeable staff will keep any nature enthusiast coming back for more and I hope to return soon.
Had a really fun time visiting Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower center. So many wildflowers and they had amazing spots for pictures. It feels like a dream. They also have long trails and short trails and you can walk them depending on the weather. I love the observation tower. Their gift shop is so cute and filled with amazing gifts for you or loved ones. If you haven’t been there and want to see blue bonnets or other wild flowers, definitely visit.
Great place if you enjoy flower blooms and trees. Informative free volunteer tour that is definitely worth it. Wonderful things for young children to do. The Cafe was wonderful and the Mushroom Arugula Sandwich with its tangy pesto was delicious! Worth it for a day visit!. Great barefooting experience to walk the trails and experience nature up close!
We took an awesome Nature Poetry class with Dyhanara Rios! We got introduced to some poetry terms, got a tour of the gardens with a horticulturalist, and wrote some poems. It was a ton of fun and we will be back for the class in November.
