Jacksonville Arboretum & Botanical Gardens Receives Grants to Start
Jacksonville Arboretum & Botanical Gardens e-Newsletter February 2021 EDITION Hours: 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Jacksonville Arboretum & Botanical Gardens Receives Grants to Start Master Plan Process Jacksonville, Fla. (Feb. 10, 2021) – Later this month, the Arboretum will begin the exciting process of developing a master plan to design and install botanical gardens on the property. The master plan process was made possible by generous grants of $30,000 from the Delores Barr Weaver Legacy Fund and $10,000 from the River Branch Foundation. The planning process will take about eight months to complete. The addition of botanical gardens is the latest in a continuous plan to propel the Arboretum into a best-in-class destination in the southeast. Executive Director Dana Doody noted that each project is being planned carefully to add as much value as possible while managing the non-profit’s budget plan in unprecedented times. In addition to the grant for the master plan design, the Delores Barr Weaver Legacy Fund also awarded the Arboretum a $70,000 challenge grant for the first phase of the implementation. The 1:1 challenge grant will launch a community campaign following the completion of the design plan. “The Arboretum is an important community asset which brings thousands of people to its special trails, many of which are ADA accessible,” said Delores Barr Weaver. “The plan will provide a vision for a botanical destination, sure to benefit our citizens for years to come.” The process will take into account the Arboretum’s unique qualities, Florida’s seasons and Jacksonville’s ecosystems and native horticulture. -

Conserving Oaks in North American Plant Collections: a Collaborative Approach
Conserving Oaks in North American Plant Collections: A Collaborative Approach Emily Griswold Assistant Director of Horticulture UC Davis Arboretum, University of California, Davis, CA 95616 As much as any ardent collector would love to comprehensively represent the variety of the genus Quercus in her garden, the great taxonomic diversity, range of natural habitats, and large mature size of oaks make that virtually impossible. With that in mind, a new cooperative group of American public gardens has recently formed with the goal of representing the oak diversity of North America in its collections. The 15 member gardens were recently recognized as the first multi-institutional collection of the North American Plant Collections Consortium (NAPCC). The members of the multi-institutional Quercus collection include: Chicago Botanic Garden – Glencoe, Illinois - 48 taxa Cornell Plantations – Ithaca, New York - 77 taxa Denver Botanic Gardens – Denver, Colorado - 61 taxa Holden Arboretum – Kirtland, Ohio - 64 taxa Landis Arboretum – Esperance, New York - 14 taxa Missouri Botanical Garden – Saint Louis, Missouri - 40 taxa Morris Arboretum of the University of Pennsylvania – Philadelphia, Pennsylvania - 58 taxa The Morton Arboretum – Lisle, Illinois - 67 taxa Mount Auburn Cemetery – Cambridge, Massachusetts - 25 taxa New York Botanical Garden – Bronx, New York - 46 taxa Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Garden – Claremont, California - 27 taxa Scott Arboretum of Swarthmore College – Swarthmore, Pennsylvania - 52 taxa UC Davis Arboretum – Davis, California - 92 taxa University of California Botanical Garden – Berkeley, California - 71 taxa University of Washington Botanic Gardens – Seattle, Washington - 86 taxa A program of the American Public Gardens Association, the NAPCC is a coordinated network of public gardens dedicated to preserving and expanding the plant diversity represented in gardens for the purposes of conservation, research, education, and public enjoyment. -
