Dominion Arboretum

Dominion Arboretum was established in 1889 and situated on 64-sections of land of moving area, the arboretum was produced to test the toughness of woody plants in the Canadian atmosphere. Canada's most seasoned arboretum. More than 1,000 tree species and assortments from around the globe planted in a fluctuated geology of slopes, secured discouragements and swamp, waterside territories where they could be assessed for their strength to the Canadian atmosphere. Numerous trees of gigantic size go back to the starting point of the arboretum. The upper east corner of the Arboretum has its own microclimate. Here, you will see magnolias, rhododendrons, a wisteria and others. The post on the south-east side offers an all encompassing perspective of the notable Rideau Canal and Carleton University, while the north-east ignores Dow's Lake and the encompassing city.
