The gardens of the arboretum are spread over the 300 acre campus of Swarthmore College.

Is this an arboretum with college buildings or a college campus inside an arboretum? Either way, it is a wonderful place for those interested in horticulture to wander among many gardens with different themes. We visited in July and there was still plenty of interest but we suspect that an spring visit when the rhododendron and peony collections were in full bloom would be fantastic.
