From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Montana Arboretum and Gardens are located on the Montana State University campus in Bozeman, Montana. The Arboretum proper is located at the northwestern corner of campus by the intersection of West College Avenue and South 11th Avenue, but plantings occur throughout campus.
The small arboretum features native plants from the north Rocky Mountain region, the plains, and drier areas of Montana. It includes a XeriscapeTM garden and many established large specimens.
