The bill, H. 4196, is a House Resolution recognizing and honoring the Riverbanks Botanical Garden on the occasion of its thirtieth anniversary. The resolution commends the garden for its significant contributions to conservation, education, and community engagement in South Carolina. Established on June 10, 1995, the garden spans seventy acres and features over 5,700 species of native and exotic plants. It has received national recognition for its beauty and impact, including accolades from Horticulture magazine and HGTV. The garden also plays a vital role in conservation efforts, partnering with various organizations to protect endangered plant species and promoting initiatives to create pollinator-friendly habitats.

The resolution highlights the garden's expansion in 2016 with the addition of Waterfall Junction, a children's garden designed to foster family connections with nature. It emphasizes the garden's role as an educational resource and a source of inspiration for both residents and visitors. The House of Representatives expresses its appreciation for the garden's ongoing commitment to environmental health and community involvement, and it resolves to present a copy of the resolution to the Riverbanks Botanical Garden.
