1 Arboretum Road Santa Cruz, CA , 95064 Phone: (831) 502-2998 Website 4/25/24: I visited today. Machine was not there. Employees had no idea what happened to it.
Overlooking Monterey Bay, the U.C. Santa Cruz Arboretum stands on an ancient marine terrace in the Santa Cruz Mountains. This exceptional site on the university campus is a vast outdoor classroom for scientific study, as well as a destination for gardeners and nature lovers. The 135-acre site provides the ideal microclimate and topography for Mediterranean plants to grow.
Different sections represent plants from Australia, California, New Zealand, and South Africa. Many of the plants are endangered in their native environments, and the Arboretum works to protect them from extinction.
Special features of the Arboretum include the Australian Rock Garden; a fragrant Eucalyptus Grove; the small Butterfly Garden, planted with flowers and shrubs that attract butterflies; a research garden used to study the native flora of California; and "Hummingbird Hotspots" that offer a chance to see pink-throated Anna's hummingbirds.
The machine is located outside of Norrie's Gift Shop near the Succulent Garden. Designs are:
1) UC Santa Cruz Arboretum Logo,
2) A Hummingbird,
3) A California Poppy,
4) A Swallow-Tail Butterfly.
