Saving native plants during COVID-19

As museums, zoos, aquariums and botanical gardens worldwide have temporarily shut down to prevent the spread of COVID-19, staff members are hard at work behind the scenes caring for the precious collections that will be waiting for the day visitors can return. The University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa’s Lyon Arboretum is no different. Closed to the public since March 19, the staff has been working a modified schedule to make sure operations continue and the plants are well taken care of.
