Review:
The Jensen-Olson Arboretum is the premiere public garden of Southeast Alaska, showcasing the state's national primrose collection. The garden, which is located along the shores of Juneau's gorgeous Pearl Harbor, was donated to the city by Caroline Jensen and opened to the public in 2007. Today, it has evolved into a major living laboratory and botanical destination, showcasing more than 1,200 native and cultivated plant species. It is protected by a conservation easement overseen by the Southeast Alaska Land Trust, striving to inspire generations of Alaskans and area visitors to enjoy the natural sciences and the art of horticulture. Lovely garden areas include an interactive wood garden showcasing rocks engraved with English, Spanish, Tagalog, and Tlingit words, allowing visitors to create their own interactive garden poetry and messages.
