Watch Us Grow at the Bickelhaupt

 

 

Our History

The Bickelhaupt Arboretum was a gift to the public in 1970 by Bob and Frances Bickelhaupt. The area surrounding their home has been made an outdoor museum for all to enjoy. Black and white photographs from 1970-71 have been preserved showing the sparse beginnings of what has become one of the finest privately-owned museums of select, labeled trees, shrubs, ground covers, perennials, and annual flowers.

The preserved black and white photos can be viewed along with color photos of the same areas as they appear in 2005.
