Wadsworth Control Systems

Red Butte Garden and Arboretum in Salt Lake City is home to over 100 acres of themed gardens and natural areas and an award-winning plant-focused science education program. Their production greenhouses, where they grow the collections for display areas, have a Wadsworth Seed control system that manages climate, lighting, and irrigation. They also utilize soil moisture sensors to automatically trigger irrigation events.
Each year, more than 250,000 guests from all over the world come to Red Butte Garden and Arboretum to experience the beauty and diversity of plants and trees in a stunning mountain setting.

We recently completed commissioning a new Seed system at Texas State University in San Marcos. The system was installed in the Biology Department research greenhouses and will support a variety of plant health research studies.
These greenhouses also feature a custom-designed Wadsworth shade system to improve shading and heat retention. While on site, our team reviewed the operation of the VersiSTEP control systems and provided training for new professors on greenhouse control operation.
