About Ferncliff Cemetery and Arboretum
Ferncliff Cemetery and Arboretum, Springfield, is Ohio’s largest historic cemetery, and a place where the beauty of life is celebrated year-round through reverence for the beloved deceased of Clark County and the surrounding area, as well as the wonder of nature.

Ferncliff's arboretum consists of over 50 common and unique tree species for visitors to view, identify, and appreciate. Throughout the course of the year, a spectacular show is performed as the seasons repeatedly dress the various branches and leaves with vivid colors and sublime costumes that cast the Ferncliff grounds with the lights of both peace and renewal. Combined with our cherished fern-covered cliffs, gentle slopes, and winding walkways, a comforting and reflective environment is formed—perfect for walking or inspired exploration.

New trees are planted in the Arboretum throughout the year, either to replenish the grounds or to enhance areas yet to be developed. Continual beautification of the grounds is an important part of Ferncliff’s tradition and provides a vital link between our efforts made today and those undertaken in the past.

Some of the common (yet still-brilliant) species found in the arboretum include Norway Maple, Sugar Maple, Red Maple, Black Walnut, Bur Oak, Red Oak, White Ash and Green Ash. Ferncliff is also home to the following unique, native species of trees (originating at Ferncliff) which are of particular interest to committed arborists, or anyone who appreciates nature. They include Yellowwood, White Fringetree, Black Tupelo (Black Gum), American Hophornbeam, Umbrella Magnolia and Pignut Hickory. From Ferncliff Cemetery website
