'Lockerly Arboretum' (50 acres) is a private, nonprofit
arboretum located on Business Highway 441 South,
Milledgeville, Georgia. It is open daily, except Sundays, without charge.
The arboretum was chartered in 1965 on the grounds of the antebellum Lockerly Hall (circa 1839). In 1998, Col. Oliver N. Worley donated an additional 200 acres to the foundation for an Environmental Education facility.
The arboretum is a horticultural laboratory, with collections of
azalea,
camelia,
conifers,
holly,
rhododendron, and
viburnum, as well as
daylily,

cactus and tropical plants.
