The JC Raulston Arboretum is a nationally acclaimed garden with one of the largest and most diverse collections of landscape plants adapted for landscape use in the Southeast. Plants especially adapted to Piedmont North Carolina conditions are collected and evaluated in an effort to find superior plants for use in southern landscapes.
We need your help now to fund essential wish-list projects for the JC Raulston Arboretum.
Explore "Post-Modern Patterns," at the Arboretum today. Under the guidance of the JCRA Volunteer Ephemeral Art Committee, these hand painted works are scattered throughout the garden. Discover their unique interpretations of alebrijes, fantastical creatures from Mexico, and be inspired by their creativity in our outdoor space.

Check out the Arboretum's Plant Sale Buggy when you visit. Located outside the Bobby G. Wilder Visitor Center, it’s a great spot to find choice and unusual plants for your garden. New plants are added throughout the week, and payments can be made using cash (no change available), checks, or credit cards.
Showtimes is your ticket to what's in flower at the JC Raulston Arboretum where there's always something in flower. Showtimes features a listing of every plant photographed this month (and other months, too) with a random set of photographs from our photograph collection.
The participation and engagement of our community partners is essential for the JCRA to fulfill its horticultural and educational mission. We thank these supporters.
