Hoyt Arboretum


Hoyt Arboretum, one of WFC's neighbors in Washington Park, hosted Fellows to discuss ways to collaborate. Hoyt Arboretum's plant collection is made up of just under 10,000 individual trees and shrubs, representing nearly 1000 different species. Their purpose is to grow the broadest possible range of woody plants from around the world. All of the plants have labels with the scientific and common names, and the geographic origin of the species. With Fellows coming from many different regions of the world, the opportunities to work together are endless.
