History and organisation

The botanic garden started with development of the 37.5-acre Rock Springs Park in 1912 involving natural springs, streams and rock features. This was completed for the opening of the botanic garden in 1934. This area was redeveloped from 2013 as the Tinsley Rock Springs Garden, restoring the water features and re-planting with plants native to north Texas.

In 2011, new buildings for the Botanical Research Institute of Texas were opened adjacent to the botanic garden.
