Sweet Gum Tree House

Sweet Gum Tree House, located beneath a sweet gum tree (Liquidambar styraciflua) and designed by Roost Design Studio. Created to act as a "Gateway to the Garden," the tree house features a structural pathway allowing Garden visitors to view the cedar trees, Goodman Iris Garden and Milles Sculpture Garden pools from a new perspective.

The Missouri Botanical Garden invites visitors to branch out from the ordinary notion of tree houses with an original exhibition of nine TREEmendous Extreme Tree Houses. View the winning works of a juried competition to construct imaginative, non-traditional, ground- level structures beneath the canopy of the Garden's oak, elm, gingko and other stately trees. The Extreme Tree Houses are on outdoor display Saturday, Apr. 30 through Sunday, Aug. 21 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily. The exhibit is included with general admission and highlights the Garden's TREEmendous year of activities in recognition of the United Nations (U.N.) International Year of Forests.
