The Arboretum’s trails are home to a remarkable diversity of snakes—key predators that help balance desert ecosystems. From agile climbers to well-camouflaged ground dwellers, each species has its own adaptations for hunting, hiding, and thriving in our landscapes. Spot them basking, cruising at dusk, or blending into leaf litter, and remember to observe from a safe distance.

Discover the quiet beauty of our Garden Highlight at Boyce Thompson Arboretum. Moonflower datura opens elegant white trumpets in the cool hours, contrasting with the upright forms of columnar cacti and the textured desert palette. It’s a living lesson in arid‑land design—structure, shade, and seasonal bloom working together.

Keeping our collection healthy starts with smart prevention. We use horticultural sulfur on select cacti and succulents to manage powdery mildew and mites, gently acidify alkaline soils, and help speed callusing on cuts and offsets—reducing the risk of fungal infections. Applications are light, targeted, and timed for cool mornings; we never combine sulfur with horticultural oils.

The Arboretum is full of fascinating lizards, each with its own behavior, colors, and way of thriving in the desert. From rock dwellers to fast‑moving ground hunters and tree‑climbing species, their variety highlights the richness of the Sonoran ecosystem. Watch closely along warm paths, garden edges, and rocky slopes — there’s always something darting, basking, or blending in.
