We are hosting a contribution drive for the benefit of ACLAMO in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, an Arboretum partner organization who needs our help!

In 2004, Athyrium niponicum var.  pictum (Japanese painted fern) received the Perennial Plant of the Year award for being one of the most colorful and resilient ferns for the garden.

As an arboretum, we're devoted to the existence and potential of trees within nature as well as communities, which is why we're calling on our visitors to support The Residential Energy and Economic Savings Act (TREES Act) of 2021.

Monarda didyma (scarlet beebalm) is a tall native perennial growing in the Morris Arboretum Herb Garden. Monarda is named for Nicolás Monardes (1494–1588), a Spanish physician and botanist.

This summer, Scaevola aemula is featured in many of the planters gracing the Rose Garden of Morris Arboretum.
