In 1965 the State of Connecticut purchased F.A. Bartlett’s home and property, setting in motion the establishment of what today is the Bartlett Arboretum & Gardens.
To celebrate, the Bartlett is hosting a year-long series called 60 Years / 60 Trees.This series of six walks, one every other month, is designed to tell the story of this organization through its trees. The next one is Tuesday, June 10 from 11am-noon.
Early Summer is a great time to observe the leaf and bloom characteristics of trees. Pictured: white flowers blooming on a Sourwood tree.
