The private home gardens and Prospect Garden are self-guided. The tours of Morven Museum and Garden will be docent led at Noon and 2:00 pm. Don't miss this wonderful opportunity to see some beautiful and historic gardens right here in the Garden State! Directions to all of the gardens will be sent a week in advance.

Mid-Summer Blooms

Our cool, moist spring and relatively mild summer has led to cascades of blooms throughout our gardens. Join one of our garden tours this weekend (Willowwood and Bamboo Brook are on the schedule) or do it yourself with a walk at the Frelinghuysen Arboretum.

Our What's in Bloom list is updated regularly so check it out and take a few minutes from your busy schedules and walk around the Frelinghuysen Arboretum soon. Nature's splendor is worth pausing for regularly.

Take advantage of the great events at the Arboretum this Spring. All our great Summer programs are up on the Events page of our website. Browse them there and sign up on-line while there is still room.
