Our arboretum is not only a living laboratory for instruction on campus, but further plays a valuable role in sustaining the ecological health and biodiversity of the greater, Houston community. Your gift to the Lowrey Arboretum will help advance the care of our urban forest, expand the scope of our collection, and further support our engagement of our campus and Houston community in our region’s natural history. We thank you for your consideration.
