Plant-Lover's Tour
"Interns' Top Picks"
2025 Summer Horticulture Interns
- Tuesday, July 1, 2025 – 9:00 am–10:00 am
By midsummer, our Horticulture Interns aren't just finding their footing—they're firmly established like a well-tended tree. And with roots in the garden and fresh eyes on the collection, they're ready to take you on a tour unlike any other. Join us as the interns lead this special Plant-Lover's Tour, showcasing some of the most curious, charming, and conversation-starting plants they've discovered during their time at the Arboretum. From botanical oddballs to underappreciated gems, their selections are sure to surprise—and maybe even inspire you to look at your own garden a little differently. This tour is always a favorite of ours, full of heart, humor, and horticultural curiosity. You won't want to miss it!
