University of Arizona Campus Arboretum Florilegium Mini Exhibit
Posted Feb 26, 2026
For those on campus near the CALES Dean’s office, take a peek at the Matthew B. Johnson Florilegium mini exhibit on display there (Forbes 3rd Floor).
The mini-exhibit includes 12 illustrations and will be on display in the private offices of the CALES Dean’s
office from January through December 2026. These illustrations are in full color and show important features of each plant under magnification and including all stages of the plant’s development. Each work of art took hundreds of hours to complete. While the mini-exhibit is not available for public view, the virtual gallery of the art are available on our website: https://arboretum.arizona.edu/florilegiium-virtual-gallery.
