In Cheyenne's Lions Park, this botanical garden centers on a large solar-heated conservatory, one of the earliest public greenhouses to rely on passive solar energy, sheltering tropical plants against Wyoming's harsh climate. Outdoor grounds include a children's village, a labyrinth, rose and herb gardens, and native-plant plantings suited to the high plains. The gardens emphasize community and therapeutic horticulture, with programs involving seniors and youth.
