The plantsmap can also be accessed from the "Visit" menu tab on the home page of this website.

We are excited to have over 672 plants in our arboretum mapped and navigatable for visitors using plantsmap. Plantsmap is a website community that hosts botanical collections with customized tools that aids sites in documenting, organizing, mapping, tagging and sharing information about plants. Our plantsmap also highlights our dwarf conifer and ground cover collections which were the topic of recent zoom virtual garden tours led by Deb Merriam, our Arboretum Director.

Plantsmap.com is a mobile-friendly website so there is not a need to download an app. Visitors to plantsmap.com have free and open access to explore and discover plants, collections, resources, and events.
