Arnold Arboretum of Harvard University
Jamaica Plain
Established in 1872 and designed by Frederick Law Olmsted as part of Boston's Emerald Necklace park system, the Arnold Arboretum is a 281-acre living collection of trees, shrubs, and woody plants operated by Harvard University. One of the oldest public arboreta in North America, it is free every day of the year from sunrise to sunset. The diverse flowering trees and shrubs provide a continuous nectar resource from April through October that supports hummingbirds during both breeding season and fall migration along the urban Atlantic Flyway corridor through Boston.
