Guided Tour at Morris Arboretum & Gardens:
Trees Around the World

The guided tours at the Morris offered by HPS/MAG since January 2022 have been popular events with our members. A special collaboration with the Morris Arboretum & Gardens allows us to offer docent-guided tours throughout the year focused on specialty topics not often offered.

On this Trees Around the World tour, you will discover a diversity of trees from around the world and the United States. This tour showcases trees from Asia, Europe, Africa, and the Americas that will take you on a worldwide journey in the arboretum. John & Lydia Morris traveled worldwide to bring an international flavor to their gardens. They returned from their journeys with horticultural specimens and ideas for many of the garden features. Early plant explorers and more recent plant explorations by the arboretum staff have added to the global collection.

Please gather at the Welcome Center and be prepared to walk "off path" around the arboretum. Wear walking or hiking shoes and dress for the weather. In the event of heavy rain, the rain date will be Wednesday, September 17^th.

The arboretum’s hours are 10 AM - 4 PM. Tour attendees may arrive early or stay after the tour to further explore the arboretum. The gift shop and restrooms will be open.
