The Regional Parks Botanic Garden is a 10-acre (4 hectare) botanical garden located in Tilden Regional Park in the Berkeley Hills, east of Berkeley, California, in the United States. It showcases California native plants, and is open to the public. The garden was founded on January 1, 1940.

Specimens

The garden is organized into sections, each representing a distinctive natural area in California:
