Garden's Mission and Vision
Our Mission
“Continue consolidating the most important Botanical Garden in Mexico for the exhibition, propagation, study, discovery, and conservation of native Mexican plants, for the enjoyment of residents and our foreign visitors. ”
It is our hope that you will enjoy learning about and seeing Mexican orchids and other native plants here at Vallarta Botanical Garden. Many of the orchids you see here were grown in our in vitro propagation lab. You are invited to view the in vitro lab in the Native Plant house through our viewing window.
The Vallarta Botanical Garden is a leading environmental organization in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, with the mission to study, preserve, and display Mexican native plants for the enjoyment and education of locals and international visitors, and has been a top conservation leader in Mexico for over 19 years.
Get ready for an incredible journey at the Vallarta Botanical Garden! Located in the dazzling city of Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, this garden is a true paradise where you can marvel at the amazing diversity of Mexico’s unique plants. Here, in a safe environment, you’ll find the most visited public orchid collection in the country, a spectacle you won’t want to miss!
Since its founding in 2004, this botanical garden has been on a noble mission to protect the flora and fauna of this region of Western Mexico.
The Los Horcones River beautifies the landscape surrounding the botanical garden. Its crystal-clear flow is a source of life that provides food and shelter for emblematic species such as the river otter, the ocelot, and the green macaw. Celebrating and protecting the Los Horcones River honors the delicate balance of nature and ensures a sustainable future for generations to come.
So, if you ever visit Banderas Bay, you can’t miss exploring this botanical conservation oasis.
Our Vision
Build on our history of more than 20 years of work as an environmental organization, to promote a sustainable Mexico, through the protection of the region’s ecosystems and raising awareness of the problems that biodiversity faces in the face of urbanization and habitat degradation.
