The Plant Clinic
The Morton Arboretum’s Plant Clinic is a leading source of science-based advice about trees, plants, and landscapes, helping gardeners and landscape professionals throughout the Chicago region and the world have healthy, attractive, well-chosen plants.
With advice based on research and nearly a century of experience in caring for a wide variety of trees and plants in the Midwest, the Plant Clinic helps promote sound management practices.
Often the Plant Clinic staff can direct guests to mature plants on the Arboretum’s grounds, which can be a great help in choosing the most appropriate plant for a yard or landscape.
The Plant Clinic also has many online resources to help with trees and plants.
For service on weekdays, you may visit the Plant Clinic lobby in person or call 630-719-2424, Monday through Friday, between 10:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. You can also email your plant care questions to plantclinic@mortonarb.org at any time.
