Meet the boojum tree. This unique tree, with its upside-down carrot shape, hails from the Baja California and Sonora regions, thriving in the harsh desert. Known for its smart water storage in their bulbous trunks and slow, steady growth, boojums trees are true desert survivors.
Visit Boojum Cove to explore these quirky trees up close. They’re not only fascinating to look at, but they also play an essential role in the ecosystem—offering shade and attracting pollinators like bees and hummingbirds. Experience the incredible resilience of desert plants firsthand at the Arboretum!
