The Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Garden

#hellohalloween
The way the Dallas Arboretum handles fall color is spectacular, especially given the hot Texas climate. While traditional leaf change might be subtle, the garden fills that gap with a breathtaking display of chrysanthemums and ornamental kale. The sheer volume of these flowers—over 150,000 seasonal blooms—creates rolling hills of vibrant color. The deep maroon, sunny gold, and crisp white flowers provide the classic autumn palette that pairs perfectly with the pumpkin displays. It’s a sensory feast, proving that you don't need maple trees to celebrate the beauty of the season. The formal beds near the DeGolyer House look particularly stunning with the mums perfectly manicured into geometric shapes.
