Lockerly Arboretum

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 convert|200|acre|km2 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, iris, and a greenhouse for cactus and tropical plants.
