JC Raulston Arboretum

Garden areas demonstrate contrasts in form, texture, and growing conditions, making the arboretum rewarding for casual walkers as well as gardeners looking closely at individual specimens. Seasonal change offers a different experience throughout the year.

Consult the current garden map and visitor notices before choosing a route. Respect collection boundaries and research work, allow time for plant labels, and check whether special programs or events have separate registration requirements.
