What!
The Dallas Arboretum tests numerous annuals, sub- tropicals, bulbs,
herbaceous perennials, and woody plants to determine the best plants for
the unique climate of north Texas. Our challenging climate is the
perfect place to find the toughest plants alive. Receive advance
information on our recommended plant list for the next growing season!
Afterwards, lunch will be provided in our trial gardens while you visit
with our plug and seed suppliers and local growers to find availability
on the plants we promote! Reserve a table to showcase your company.
After the tours, please be our guest to visit the gardens until we close
at 5 pm.
The Dallas Arboretum is also host to the only
All- American Selections Trial in Texas,
the oldest and largest seed testing trial program in the nation.
