Plant Lists
Throughout the garden you will find Plant List Boxes (pictured below) containing plant lists for each of the major garden areas. The plant lists are available for you to use while in the garden, or may be purchased for $2 each if you would like to take them home. The plant lists are also available on our website for you to use as a reference or to print. Many of the trees and shrubs not found on the plant lists are labeled or you are always welcome to ask the staff to identify a plant for you.
