Bartlett Arboretum and Gardens
Bartlett Arboretum and Gardens Review
This 91-acre arboretum is home to more than 2,000 varieties of annuals, perennials, wildflowers, and woody plants, an art gallery, research library, greenhouse, marked ecology trails, 2-acre pond, and boardwalk through a red maple swamp. Brilliant, bold colors make the wildflower garden stunning in spring. Sunday afternoons are the time to visit for guided walks.
