Content Detail

Six taxonomic collections at The Morton Arboretum are accredited by the American Public Gardens Association’s Plant Collection Network for their conservation value and high standards of curation: oak (Quercus), elm (Ulmus), maple (Acer), magnolia (Magnolia), crabapple (Malus), and linden (Tilia).

Each of these accredited collections is easily accessible on the Arboretum’s East Side. Stop along the trail to read informational signs, admire photographic installations by artist Laurie Tennent, or rest at unique seating areas inspired by each collection.
