Description
Juniper Level Botanic Garden is a not-for-profit, 28-acre educational, research, and display garden. Established in 1986, JLBG is an institutional member of the American Public Gardens Association.
The garden actively promotes and preserves botanic diversity by bridging the gap between botany and horticulture through plant study, identification, educational outreach, global plant exploration, and by selecting, breeding, and propagating new and little known perennials to share with plant researchers, botanic gardens, and gardeners around the world.
In the quest for new plants, JLBG has initiated over 80 botanical expeditions and sponsored many more, both domestic and international, since 1994. JLBG also works closely with the top plant explorers and breeders around the world to grow and evaluate the best in new ornamental plants. Few, if any, plant nurseries or botanic gardens match the diversity of its plant collections, which currently numbers over 27,000 taxa, of which many have original provenance data.
