Found it in 2005 this is Pasadena’s only dedicated free public garden. It’s only the size of a neighborhood block so it’s not very large, but it’s extremely tranquil to walk-through and there are many different areas where you can sit and have a chat, read a book, or a picnic, or just enjoy being in nature. We saw many people sitting in reading and others having lunch and it was just a really quiet and beautiful place to take a stroll. There is no entry fee and parking is free and easy on the street so it can be a quick In-N-Out stop. They do have a good variety of different plants and most have dedicated name tags for those so you can also learn about different varieties. I would highly recommend to anyone and everyone.

Arlington Garden in Pasadena is a little oasis of serenity in the western part of Pasadena. The pathways wander through many different species of well maintained trees and plants packing a generous amount of goodness into just three acres. It is open to the public with no admission fees. The parking is limited to the residential area streets surrounding the gardens. One should be respectful of the community around this wonderful gem.
