Arboretum is named after and inspired by the Hoyt Arboretum in Washington Park, Portland, OR, that connects to Forest Park. It was founded to conserve over 2,300 endangered species of trees and shrubs, and has over 12 miles of hiking trails, including the Wildwood trail. Today, Hoyt Arboretum features approximately 6,000 trees and shrubs from over 2,300 species worldwide, with 63 species vulnerable or endangered. Each plant is labeled with its common and scientific names and region of origin, making it an educational resource for visitors. The arboretum has one of the most extensive conifer collections in the U.S., including the dawn redwood, a unique deciduous conifer once thought extinct. Rediscovered in China in 1944, this species was reintroduced to the West in 1948, with Hoyt Arboretum being one of the first recipients, and by 1952, its dawn redwood was the first in this region to produce cones in approximately 6 million years. The Arboretum is home to many conifers -- redwood, spruce, pine, fir and cedar, which all inspired the fragrance of this candle. This is the most all-encapsulating forest bathing scent we could dream up to highlight this special place, one that will be well-loved by all, year-round.
