As a center for plant research and conservation, the Arboretum is also dedicated to educating the public about the plants of the Colorado Plateau.  The links to the left lead to information about gardening, native seed sources, and the rare plant conference held in September of 2000.  If you don't find what you are looking for on our site, click here to go to a list of other sites that we recommend.

Native Plants for High-Elevation Western Gardens, by Janice Busco and Nancy Morin, an Arboretum publication, is available now at The Arboretum gift shop or online from Fulcrum Publishing.  A genuine how-to book for incorporating any of 150 plants native to the Colorado Plateau into your own gardening scheme.  Excellent photos and complete particulars on growing conditions for each plant.  Information on transplanting or planting from seed, intermountain mail-order sources, and important details for successful cultivation also included.  Click here for a review by Pacific Horticulture.
