Arboretum Tour

A Gardener's Journal Posted on February 8, 2026 by D. SmithDecember 27, 2025

We traveled to Tuscon, Arizona for some late-winter (March) hiking and exploring in the Sonoran Desert hills and canyons.   We encountered many wildflowers and flowering shrubs beside the trails (featured on A Wildflower Journal), but we also visited a number of gardens including the Boyce Thompson Arboretum.   A previous post (Boyce Thompson Arboretum) shared some of the flowering plants we enjoyed.

More photos from the garden tour are shared here – peach blossoms, apple blossoms, Berberis, jasmine, silver torch cactus, Senita cactus, boojum, barrel cactus, agave, mountain laurel, shrubby germander, honeysuckle, jade plant, Oxalis, Nandina, Judas tree, and feather duster. The probable scientific names can be provided, on request.

The images are shared in a Google Photos album (with captions/IDs) – Boyce Thompson Arboretum (2)
