Operated initially on a volunteer basis, AABGA acquired part-time professional staff in 1972 and full-time staff in 1981. AABGA's mission is to support North American botanical gardens and arboreta in fulfilling their missions to study, display, and conserve living plant collections for public benefit. Support for this mission comes in many forms: a quarterly magazine, a monthly newsletter, special publications, and programming at annual and regional meetings. To encourage gardens to develop internship programs for young people, AABGA publishes and distributes an annual listing of more than 500 internships.

Polygonaceae The Polygonaceae are herbs, shrubs, or rarely trees comprising about 30 genera and 1,000 species. The leaves are simple, alternate or rarely opposite, and usually stipulate. The membranous, sheathing stipule is called an ocrea. The flowers are actinomorphic, usually small, and are bisexual or occasionally unisexual. The perianth is usually in two undifferentiated whorls comprising 3-6 distinct or basally connate tepals. The androecium consists of 6-9, commonly 8 distinct or basally connate stamens, usually in two whorls. The gynoecium consists of a compound pistil of usually 3 carpels, an equal number of style branches or styles, and a superior ovary with one locule containing a single basal ovule. The fruit is usually a 3-angled or 3-winged achene. Each "thumbnail" image below is linked to a larger photograph. Antigonon leptopus, Mexican creeper. Although the flowers of this coarse vine are showier than average for Polygonaceae, a closer view (below) reveals that their construction is quite typical for the family, note 5-parted perianth and eight stamens.
