If you are planning to travel this summer and have an
interest in horticulture, you might want to go online and get a list of botanical
gardens and arboretums along your route.
In Raleigh, we are fortunate to have the J.C. Raulston
Arboretum, which is located on Beryl Road, just west of the NC State campus. It
is managed by the Horticultural Sciences Department at NC State, and serves as
a model for what an arboretum or botanical garden should do: provide access and information about the
widest possible variety of plants to the public.
