Quad City Botanical Center presents indoor tropical planting and outdoor garden areas in Rock Island.

The Sun Garden offers an enclosed growing environment, while seasonal displays and educational events provide different reasons to return through the year. The photograph shows the actual botanical-center building.
Check current admission and opening times before visiting, particularly around holidays and evening events. Special seasonal programs can have separate ticket arrangements from a daytime garden visit. The operator permits service animals but does not admit general pets. Dress for the outdoor portion of the grounds, respect planting beds and leave extra time for any educational activity or temporary exhibit included in your visit.
