  • Pictures from Katharine Boyle – 9/15/24

    Katharine Boyle sent this batch of lovely pictures from her visit to the Arboretum this past weekend.

    Thanks Katharine for the reminder of how beautiful the Frelinghuysen is as summer winds down.




  • At the Arboretum – More Trees

    A couple more examples of the lovely trees on the Arboretum’s grounds.: A spectacular Acer saccharum ‘Bonfire’ (Bonfire Sugar Maple) ablaze with fall colors and a lovely Heptacodium miconioides (Seven Sons Tree). A small ornamental tree (13-30 feet tall) with interesting exfoliating bark, and small fragrant flowers that bloom in September – the tree is attractive to butterflies and bees. And a Cercis chinensis cv. Don Egolf (Chinese Redbud) showing off her lovely lavender spring blooms, so easy to see because it flowers before the leaves appear.




  • At the Arboretum – 9/10/24

    In anticipation of the Tree Symposium in November, here are just a few examples of the variety of trees in The Frelinghuysen Arboretum’s collection. A lovely Cedrus atlantica ‘Glauca’ (Blue Atlas Cedar) in front of the Mansion, a majestic Quercus rubra (Red Oak), an ornamental Cornus Kousa (Kousa Dogwood) and an Acer palmatum cv. Sango Kaku (Coral Bark Japanese Maple) in full fall attire.
