The legacy of Morris Arboretum & Garden’s plant distribution tradition started nearly 100 years ago in the will of founder Lydia Morris. In addition to distributing plants to other public gardens, the Morris has maintained Lydia’s wish of sharing plants with members, continuing again this May with you!

Pollinator lovers will be thrilled by the beauty of this year’s plant selection. Many of this year’s Giveaway plants are not only pollinator favorites but are also exciting native plants with eye-catching colors. Whether you are a seasoned gardener or are planning to dig in for the first time, our experienced staff will be onsite with suggestions across the board.

All members are welcome to attend the Member Plant Giveaway on May 18 or May 19.

Individual and Friends & Family memberships qualify for one giveaway plant per membership household. Supporter memberships and above qualify for two giveaway plants per membership household.
