Out and About in the Arboretum

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.

The week began with near summer-like temperatures but ended considerably cooler, and wintry. Perfectly illustrating nature’s confusion were the snow-covered daffodils in the atrium.

Witch Hazel is one of the earliest bloomers in the late winter/early spring, with the petals arriving before the foliage.

It is snowdrop season! Named for both their drop-style blooms and white color, they also often appear when snow is still on the ground.

Visit the Haddon Greenhouse to get an early dose of the sights and smells the season brings. From citrus fruits to beautiful flowers, there is something for everyone to enjoy.
