Horticultural Highlights: Guided Tour of Mt. Auburn Cemetery *Offsite* *NEW*

Mount Auburn Cemetery is one of the most beautiful and historic landscapes in America. Its impressive collection of over 5,000 trees represents 630 taxa. Thousands of shrubs and herbaceous plants weave through 175 acres of hills, dells, ponds, woodlands and clearings. Plant species from around the world that grow in a northern temperate climate can be seen on the grounds, including individual specimens recorded as Massachusetts or New England champions for their species. Be prepared to walk up to 1.5 miles, with suitable shoes and clothing for the weather and varied terrain. Instructor: Mt. Auburn Cemetery Guide
