RANCHO SANTA ANA BOTANIC GARDEN

The 'Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Garden' 86 acres (34.8 ha) is a botanical garden dedicated to native Californian plants. It is located at 1500 North College Avenue in Claremont, California, USA, just south of the San Gabriel foothills. The Garden is a non-profit organization, open to the public with free admission.
Its origins began in 1927, when Susanna Bixby Bryant established a native garden on her rancho in Orange County. The garden relocated to Claremont in 1951. The Garden now contains some 70,000 native Californian plants, representing 2,000 native species, hybrids and cultivars.
The Garden has an active research department, specializing in systematic botany and floristics. The combined herbarium of the Garden and Pomona College holds over 1,000,000 specimens. The journal ''Aliso'' is published from the Garden semiannually. The Garden offers graduate degrees in botany through Claremont Graduate University.
