Our plants

We are not just a beautiful garden; we are a conservation garden, as well as a research facility for plant study, breeding, propagation, and distribution.

Specialty collections

We have concentrated our research, breeding, and conservation activities on several groups of plants that are near and dear to our gardening hearts.

Plant list

Please excuse what is a work in progress, but it is our hope to eventually direct all Juniper Level Botanic Garden (JLBG) label QR code scans to a resource where you can get more information about each plant. In the meantime, explore our list of useful resources.
