ABOUT
Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Gardens
Dallas' most beautiful classroom is a 66-acre botanical garden with 2,400 varieties of plants such as myrtles, azaleas, Italian jardinières, tulips, roses, and more. Towering trees, fragrant gardens, and lush lawns set the stage for a natural teaching experience. Educational programs at the Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Gardens explore topics such as the ecosystem, life cycles, patterns in nature, and weathering, with hands-on investigative activities. Interdisciplinary programs let groups get creative with art, storytelling, and photography activities at the Arboretum. A minimum of 15 people per group is required to qualify for group rates.

FUN FACTS
The diverse world of plants is perhaps the weirdest, and most fascinating, of all living things. Bamboo can grow over three feet in one day (you can literally watch it grow). There are 600 species of carnivorous plants, which trap and digest insects, frogs, or small birds (if a vegetarian eats this plant, are they still a vegetarian?). The world’s largest flower, Rafflesia, can grow up to three feet in diameter (how big would a bouquet be…). Do a little digging on your next trip to a botanical garden (not literally!), and see what interesting plant facts you can find.
