History

Established in 1939.

Mrs. Gertrude Divine Webster, an environmentalist ahead of her time, founded Desert Botanical Garden in 1939. Webster, in conjunction with a small group of Valley citizens, gathered in Papago Park to create a botanical garden whose precepts would encourage an understanding, appreciation and promotion of the uniqueness of the world's deserts, particularly the Sonoran Desert. They foresaw the Valley's potential and identity, envisioning the need to conserve their beautiful desert environment. Desert Botanical Garden continues to be a testament to their vision.
