My family loves to visit JC Raulston Arboretum. The gardens are beautiful and intriguing- there are lots of secret paths that wind through an extensive variety of flora and fauna. This is one of my favorite places in Raleigh ❤️

A wonderful place to spend an Autumn morning. Japanese gardens were my favorite but everything is enjoyable.

Features a variety of trees, shrubs, and cactus plants. Great place to get ideas for the yard and garden. There's a koi pond, a Japanese garden, a desert plants area, and a variety of coniferous trees. Most people park along the street since parking is limited. No dogs allowed except service animals.
