Good to Know

As we say goodbye to the migratory birds heading to warmer destination, let’s remember our friends in the Corvidae family, which you can enjoy year-round in Northern Arizona.

If you would like to add some ‘fallscaping’ to your garden, here are some of Nate’s favorite fall bloomers and leaf-color show stoppers for you to consider in your design.

For many of our campers, this was the first time that fire was not just something they learned about in class or saw from a distance. This was more personal; something they could see, smell and worry about.

You can have a beautiful garden and still be fire- and water-wise without quadrupling your water bill or replacing your yard with gravel.

Flagstaff is along the paths of many bird species as they fly back and forth from north to south as the seasons change. Our high elevation forests and marshy, mountain wetlands are a great resting stop for our migratory birds.

The Arboretum has worked closely with The City of Flagstaff to help homeowners and developers select native species that are not only appropriate tot he region, but will be better adapted to low water use, have lower fire risks, and are not potentially invasive.
