Island of Arboreta Tour: Bellevue House

  • 304 Bellevue Avenue Newport, RI, 02840 United States (map)

Join the Newport Tree Conservancy as we tour the breathtaking gardens of Bellevue House Arboretum!

Enjoy this landscape full of delightful garden art, a traditional Japanese stroll and pond garden, and a moss garden thriving under a natural shelter created by an immense fernleaf beech. Bellevue House features a massive horsechestnut that predates the house built in 1910 and is suspected to be one of the oldest and largest on Aquidneck Island. Other specimen trees include a magnificent Scots pine, pollarded lindens, massive English yews, Turkish oak, and an assortment of fruit trees.
