Is it safe to visit the Johannesburg Botanical Garden?

If you have the time and inclination for a quiet morning/afternoon outdoors during your stay in Johannesburg, I recommend checking out the Botanical Gardens. Be aware that, as in any large open area in/near the city, it's probably best not to go unaccompanied.
