This holiday season, celebrate the people who matter most by participating in Poinsettias with a Purpose.
From November 27-January 9, a striking 6-foot tree will stand in the heart of the Arboretum’s Historic Smith Greenhouse, adorned with poinsettias. Each plant will bear a tribute to a life remembered, a milestone celebrated, or a person whose presence continues to inspire.
With a donation of $150 to support the Arboretum`s mission, you can take part in this beautiful display. Each poinsettia includes a tag with your own personalized message.
