Superior, Arizona
A funky little mining town along state highway 60, easy to ignore as you drive into the beautiful Superstition Mountains and Tonto National Forest. But it’s worth a stop, particularly for the Boyce Thompson Arboretum…
Alaska: Jensen-Olson Arboretum
On the north end of Juneau is the Jensen-Olson Arboretum. Sitting on a beach overlooking the Chilkat Mountains, the arboretum has a great collection of primroses, poppies, irises, and more. Fairly small, but well worth a visit!
