On Saturday, February 14, from 1-3 p.m., grab your family and head over to the Morris Arboretum for a day of outdoor fun and garden exploration. Follow the prepared scavenger hunt map to discover more than 70 varieties of colorful and fragrant witchhazels growing at the Morris Arboretum.

anging in color from yellow and orange to pink and red, witchhazels are some of the first harbingers of spring, and the Arboretum’s witchhazel collection is unparalleled in the area. The scavenger hunt invites visitors to compare the different varieties’ beautiful flowers and take in their heady scent. After the hunt, visitors can stop back at the Visitor Center to make a fun craft. This event is free with regular admission and registration is not required.

New this year—on the second Saturday of February (2/14) and March (3/14) at 1 p.m.—knowledgeable guides will lead visitors on tours throughout the garden, searching for witchhazels. Tours start from the Widener Visitor Center at 1 p.m. and are also free for members or with regular admission. Registration is not required.

Come and enjoy the witchhazels all month. The scavenger hunt map will be distributed at the Visitor’s Center every day in February and is also available to download from the website from the witchhazel page. For more information visit www.morrisarboretum.org
