From their website:

"The Bartlett Arboretum Herbarium is located in the lower level of the Silver Educational Center and holds specimens from as far back as 1887. The herbarium contains vascular plants and bryophytes from throughout the world with a concentration on the greater New York City area, southwestern Connecticut, Florida, Puerto Rico, Arizona and Amazonian Peru. Many of the specimens are native to Connecticut and have been collected from the arboretum grounds.

In 2009, the herbarium received its Index Herbariorum acronym (BART), identifying it as a valuable resource to the research and educational community and supporting and validating the history and mission of the Bartlett Arboretum & Gardens."
