"On May 11th we are welcome to celebrate the lilacs that give the Arboretum most of its stunning color. There will be activities, food vendors, and more to make this day one for the whole family.

Of the thousands of flowering plants in the Arboretum, only one, the lilac, is singled out each year for a daylong celebration. With more than 370 lilac plants of 176 kinds, the Arboretum holds one of the premier lilac collections in North America."
