The Trees and Arboretum at Fairmount
Founded in 1890, Fairmount Cemetery was the largest developed landscape west of the Mississippi at the time. Designed by landscape architect Reinhardt Schuetze, Fairmount was planned to resemble a park; quite the challenge in this high plains desert which averages just 15 inches of precipitation or less a year.
In 1891 Schuetze planted 4,050 trees, 220 evergreens, 100 'large' trees, 200 vines and creepers, 1,920 shrubs, 380 roses (all kinds), and 585 herbaceous plants for a total of 7,455 plants. Even by today's standards, it was a huge planting on one single property!
Schuetze worked and lived at Fairmount until 1894, when the City of Denver hired him to develop the Denver parks system, including Denver's Washington and Cheesman Parks. He was also commissioned in 1895 to design the Colorado State Capitol grounds.
In 2013 the Fairmount Heritage Foundation began a tree survey at Fairmount, recording species, size and location. Through a generous grant from the Colorado Tree Coalition, we have labeled the trees surveyed and these trees are listed bellow.
Today, Fairmount Cemetery boasts Colorado's largest arboretum, both in acreage and number of significant plants, home to numerous Notable and Champion Trees, as well as one of the largest known collections of Old Garden Roses in North America. Designated a Wildlife Viewing Area by Colorado Parks and Wildlife, Fairmount is home to deer, foxes and numerous other mammals, as well as diverse species of birds, including hawks, owls, and Golden Eagles.

Count the Rings Tree
Dendrochronology or tree-ring dating, is the scientific method of dating the age of a tree, based on the analysis of patterns of tree rings, also known as growth rings. Dendrochronology can date the time at which tree rings were formed, in many types of wood, to the exact calendar year.
At Fairmount we have a 'Count the Rings Tree' in Block 62, behind the Hammond monument. It is one of the earliest trees planted at Fairmount. At Riverside we have a 'Count the Rings Tree' in Block 17 , across the road from the Old Stone House, on the west side. This tree has signs of severe damage to the trunk, during its early years as well as numerous drought cycles throughout its life. How many rings do you count?
Resources
*Arboretum – ar·bo·re·tum – a place where trees, shrubs, woody and herbaceous plants are cultivated for scientific, educational and ornamental purposes.
*Notable Tree – individual trees which are exceptional examples of their species because of their enormous size, great age, rarity or historical significance.
*Champion Tree – the largest known tree of a species. These trees are measured using the American Forests points system which is calculated based on the trunk circumference, the height and the average crown spread to give a point value. Champion trees are documented and tracked at the state and national levels.
*Old Garden Rose – a rose that existed prior to 1867.
