Mount Auburn Cemetery, the nation's oldest garden cemetery and the model for our modern day parks system. Designated a National Historic Landmark, Mount Auburn is one of the country's most significant designed landscapes.
Asa Gray, born 200 years ago this November, was a leading American botanist, author, and plant collector. Join us for this special morning stroll to discuss Gray's legacy with visits to the graves of Gray and his colleagues. Along the way we will examine some of the flora at Mount Auburn that played an important role in Gray's botanical research.
