Beautiful setting for a memorial, we used Van De Kamp hall. Big negative is the catering company you are REQUIRED to use. Very costly and honestly the food wasnt that good.

The UCI Arboretum is private property of the UC Irvine university campus. It is a beautiful area filled with flowers and plants like cacti and succulents and is connected to the marshes of the San Joaquin Nature Reserve. The last two pictures are of the marsh.

I wish it was open more, Id love to visit more. It sounds like it used to have more funding, but its been almost entirely cut. It needs more love and it will be an even more beautiful place!

Great School! thanks for being there when I needed it.. Post production video was amazing..

Beautiful garden. Really recommend here. It is possible to contact them for a guided tour.

Great work here. Excellent, enthusiastic staff.

Great school. Beautiful campus

This place is beautiful and full of trees. There arent many students here either which makes it better than most other places on campus.

I walked around the outside with kidss after church. Open only mondays with a tour you have to book. Looks great and wanna go through the effort to take my boys in.

This arboretum is visibly underfunded by UCI, but the director of the arboretum clearly cares about the plant life here. There is a wide selection of cacti and aloe, a great place to learn about their various species. They also have a few coast Redwoods, and its always fun seeing our state tree down south, where it doesnt grow natively.Definitely worth the trip, and you can experience the entire place in about an hour.

Botanical garden now CLOSED.

Its okay. Smallish limited variety.

The UCI Arboretum is an incredible place with great plant diversity where students learn about the local ecosystems from the current Director of the site, Professor Dr. Bowler who has a great wealth of experience ans knowledge.The master gardeners of Orange County are the stewards and guardians of the African plants collection.This site also hosts a Polyculture site of native edible plants and an Aquaponics system run by students. Both proyect use community ans student volunteers on a weekly bases.Quarterly tours are offered of the Arboretum.

Very nice.

The campus is bueatiful.

Great school

Awesome scenery

As of 2015 the UCI Arboretum is now open for special events to be held quarterly. No events have been announced for 2016.

A beautiful hidden gem

Nice little garden with local vegetation

Seems to be a lot of plastic and styrofoam garbage on the grounds

Very nice place
