Powell Gardens

Powell Gardens is a 915-acre botanical garden located in Kingsville, Missouri. It features 6,000 varieties of plants, with 225,000 plants in seasonal displays. The garden dates to 1948, when the land was purchased by George E. Powell, Sr. Since then, the site has been a dairy farm, a Boy Scout camp, an agricultural and natural resource center, and, since 1988, a botanical garden.
