Georgeson Botanical Garden

The Georgeson Botanical Garden is located at 117 West Tanana Drive on the University of Alaska Fairbanks campus in Fairbanks, Alaska, United States.

The five acre garden hosts a variety of research and educational programs in subarctic horticulture.

The garden was named after Charles Christian Georgeson, who was USDA Special Agent in Charge of Alaska Investigations in 1899.

A ten-year effort begun in 2001 to explore the possibility of exporting fresh cut flowers has led to a small industry centered on peonies.

Because of Alaska's northern environment, many flowers bloom later than other regions, providing a competitive advantage on world markets.
