McCrory Gardens is a botanical garden and arboretum operated and maintained by South Dakota State University. The gardens are funded primarily by donations from Friends of McCrory Gardens, admission fees, other special gifts and endowment returns. McCrory has over 25 acres of formal gardens and 45 acres of arboretum featuring hundreds of different flowers, trees, shrubs, and grasses in harmonious settings to display, educate, and further the development of new varieties. The South Dakota State Arboretum features trees that are adopted to South Dakota's harsh climate. In addition, we routinely trial new selections of trees and shrubs to test their adaptability to our growing conditions. The testing and evaluation of new woody plant selections and varieties in the climate of the northern Greater Plains, initiated by Dr. N.E. Hansen almost three-quarters of a century ago, remains an integral part of our research mission.
