The Lyon Arboretum encompasses 193 acres of tropical plants, native Hawaiian species, and research facilities in the rainforest climate of Oahu.
The University of Hawaii established this scientific garden in 1918 to study tropical plants and conduct research on Hawaiian flora preservation methods.
The garden maintains collections of traditional Hawaiian medicinal plants and hosts educational programs about native plant uses in Pacific Island communities.

The garden houses over 5,000 plant species within its microclimate, including rare Hawaiian plants stored in a specialized micropropagation facility.
