Maxwell Arboretum, Botanical garden at University of Nebraska-Lincoln campus, Lincoln, United States.
Maxwell Arboretum encompasses over 100 acres of land with collections of trees, shrubs, and perennial gardens connected by winding paths through the grounds.
The garden was established in 1978 and named after Dr. J.F. Maxwell, the first professor of horticulture at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.
The arboretum functions as an educational center where students and researchers study plant science, ecology, and sustainable gardening methods throughout the year.
The arboretum provides free access to visitors and includes informational signs about plant species, along with designated areas for research and picnics.
A restored prairie section within the arboretum maintains native plant species and creates natural habitats for local wildlife populations.
