Wavertree Botanic Gardens is a mid-19th century public park located in Liverpool, England. Originally established as a private botanic garden, it was taken over by Liverpool Corporation in 1846 and expanded into a public park. Visitors often praise the gardens for their tranquility and the beautiful cherry blossoms that bloom in April, making it a perfect time for a visit2. The gardens are accessible from Edge Lane Station or by bus, and it’s recommended to bring a camera to capture the picturesque scenery. For those interested in exploring more of what Liverpool has to offer, there are various tours and experiences available. But in my recent experience I found this park a little out of shape as it was dirty, trees here and there overall it was not well maintained.

A tranquil haven in an otherwise busy area. I live just across the road and sadly don’t have a garden so feel lucky to have this park on my doorstep. The meadow area is very peaceful and you can often find people relaxing on blankets on nice days. The walled gardens were looking a bit neglected but thankfully are now being maintained by a wonderful community team, ‘Friends of Wavertree Botanic Gardens’ who volunteer their time on weekends. The park has recently been allocated significant funding, likely as a result of the Littlewoods redevelopment happening next door. Hopefully this will be put to good use and improve the facilities for the local community to enjoy.

Visited while shopping on Edge Lane. I'm sure in recent years gone by this Walled garden was lush and full of lovely colour. Unfortunately it has been left to just decay and stand still. A nice walk through with the odd bit of colour and the odd bench to sit down and rest. Nice and peaceful considering a busy main road is just the other side of the walk. A nice stone building tucked on the corner is actually a little nursary school. A nice little area in quite a big park behind it.

I visited at the best time of the year, when the cherry trees are in bloom and form a pink corridor. It gets so beautiful! The park has lots of open field, lawn space, and an area for children. It is easy to acces by public transport or car. It’s a walled park and some gates were closed the day I visited, there was an open entrance through Botanic Rd and another at Edge Ln. I wish there were more plants and flowers besides the cherry trees...

It is a park of two areas,the open part that is mainly used for football pitches and the gardens which is enclosed. The enclosed area is quite beautiful but not that large. An ideal place to sit down and rest to idle the day away. The plants and shrubs are lovely and there area routes in and out of the middle section as well as a perimeter path. Quite a few dog patrons.

Very underrated park, I've visited in all seasons and it always looks incredible. Good birdlife too - have seen nuthatches, ravens, various thrushes, blackcaps, chiffchaffs. Usually pretty quiet and lots of places where you can have a moment to yourself. Also large fields nearby and a playpark/outdoor gym equipment.
