Ants with Attitude
Some of the Arboretum’s smallest residents are its most ecologically important: dozens of ant species support the plants and wildlife here by spreading seeds, pollinating flowers, and decomposing fallen trees. Join Horticulturist and naturalist Brendan Keegan to learn about the remarkable effect these largely unnoticed ant species have on the Arboretum landscape.
