Description

Established in 1872 and designed in collaboration with landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted, the Arnold Arboretum is a National Historic Landmark. Founded as a partnership between the City of Boston and Harvard University, the Arnold Arboretum is a unique blend of a respected research institution and beloved public park in Bostons Emerald Necklace. Occupying 281 acres, its living number of trees, shrubs, and woody vines is recognized as one of the crucial comprehensive and best documented of its kind on this planet. Its lilac collection is a springtime favorite of visitors, in conjunction with the magnificent rhododendrons, and within the fall, trees from maples to daybreak redwoods provide an attractive display of color. The living collection is supported by curatorial documentation, a herbarium, library and archival holdings, and a state of the art research center. These facilities and holdings give you the basis for research and education of visitors, students, and scholars from around the globe.
