    The Dallas Arboretum, on the grounds of the DeGolyer estate, overlooks White Rock Lake and offers a spectacular array of color, plant specimens, flower and trees, fern, herbs . . . lovely pleasant surroundings for a leisurely walk, a quiet time to ponder and a favorite for all the family.
     Together with a small staff of master gardeners and their assistants, the mostly-volunteer staff members keep the gardens in tip-top shape.
     Many events are held at the Arboretum throughout the year, ranging from plant and gardening shows and seminars to performances. Marquee events highlighting the gardens themselves include "Dallas Blooms" in early spring and "Autumn at the Arboretum."

The gardens, a gift shop, and the DeGolyer home are open daily. There is a fee for admission. Limited parking is available on site for a fee. Free, remote parking is accessible via shuttle bus.
