Out and About in the Arboretum

The spring brings new growth all over but this pine tree’s brand-new needles are easy to spot because of their electric green hue.

The recent warmth was an ideal environment for blooms around the Arboretum, including a flowering crabapple with its lovely pink petals. The bees love it too!

Today we feature the Cercis canadensis or Redbud tree. Known for its distinctive red/pink blooms, the name is no mystery.

This short video clip features the stunning array of new Daffodils planted this year at the Lumberton campus.

Bright yellow stands out amongst the landscape and makes blooms easy to spot, whether they are forsythia, daffodils, or lesser celandine.

The iconic Hellebore is an early blooming example of a plant that is eager to welcome the new season.
