    Leach Botanical Garden in Portland offers a serene escape into nature. Visitors appreciate the well-maintained trails and diverse plant collection, showcasing both native and exotic species. The garden's historical significance, with its connection to botanist Lilla Leach, adds depth to the experience. While small in size compared to some botanical gardens, it compensates with its intimate atmosphere and peaceful setting along Johnson Creek. The garden is praised for its educational value, with plant labels and informative staff. Some visitors note that certain areas may be less accessible for those with mobility issues. The newly added aerial tree walk is a highlight, providing a unique perspective of the forest canopy. However, some feel the garden could benefit from more seating areas and expanded facilities. Overall, Leach Botanical Garden is valued as a quiet retreat for nature enthusiasts and casual visitors alike, offering a blend of horticultural interest and natural beauty.
