It`s a pear-fect time to visit the Arboretum!
The prickly pear cacti are fruiting all across the garden. This vibrant fruit ripens when the weather is at its hottest and driest, making it a vital food source for all kinds of desert wildlife.
Have you tried prickly pear fruit before? Let us know in the comments what you thought of it! 👇

The Povonia hastatas are in bloom! These flowers can be found in the Demonstration Garden, working hard to attract nearby pollinators.
Plan your visit today for a chance to see them in person!

Even at the height of summer, the desert blooms. It`s a powerful reminder that life doesn`t just survive in harsh environments, it thrives. And so can we. 🌵🌸

Seeing wildlife at the Arboretum is never boar-ing. In fact - Javelinas aren`t boars at all! They`ve been evolving separately from true pigs for nearly 40 million years. 🐖
Keep a look out for these little guys when you`re out hiking in the desert. Odds are you`ll smell them before you see them! Their scent glands produce a strong, unpleasant odor that helps them mark territory and recognize members of their herd. Always make sure to keep a safe distance!

We love seeing our furry friends at Boyce Thompson Arboretum! Here are some quick tips to combat the heat during outdoor excursions with your pet:
🌄Start Early. Take advantage of our early summer hours and visit before it gets too hot! This summer we open at 6:00 am and offer a discounted admission price of $16.
💧Stay Hydrated. Make sure to bring plenty of water for yourself and your dog! We have drinking fountains throughout the gardens you can use to refill your bottles.
💚Take Frequent Breaks. Don`t push yourself too hard in the heat! Enjoy shaded benches throughout the garden where you can observe desert plants, birds, and a variety of other critters up close.
⚠Watch for Signs. If your pet is excessively panting, seems disorientated, or is moving slower than normal, get them water and shade as quickly as possible. Make sure you are paying attention to your own body as well! Headaches, dizziness, nausea, and confusion are all symptoms of heat exhaustion. Be extra aware when temperatures exceed 105° F.
If you have any additional tips for combatting the hot weather, please feel free to drop them in the comments below! We hope to see you and your furry companions soon.
