A Newsletter of the University of Idaho Arboretum Associates
December 2022
Message from the President The UI Arboretum Associates Board and I thank all of you for another successful year for the University of Idaho Arboretum and Botanical Garden (Arboretum). We finally were able to hold our annual meeting again, and have a plant sale and the summer concert. We are all learning to live with Covid and we appreciate you coming to our events and supporting what we do.
Please visit our website at

As this issue includes articles about the plant sale, annual meeting, and summer concert I’ll just say all were well attended and we were so happy to be able to have them. I do want to thank Kenton Bird for always helping us with publicity for the concert and Lucy Falcy for creating two wonderful posters for the concert. Both are suitable for framing.
