How to Choose Botanical Gardens
--Why Visit Botanical Gardens?--
There are many reasons why people visit botanical gardens. Botanical gardens are tracts of land set aside for the cultivation of a diversity of plant species, primarily for the purposes of study and pleasure. Botanical gardens, including arboretums (tree collections), have served a variety of purposes throughout American history: research, education, conservation, plant development, and entertainment. At botanical gardens there is much to interest both the horticulturist and the casual nature lover. Botanical gardens may specialize in local flora or present plants from around the world, within the limits of the local soil and climate unless the plants are placed in a greenhouse. Some people visit botanical gardens to learn about the plants that grow in the area they live, or in the area they are visiting. Other people visit botanical gardens to see plants that don't grow in their area, so they can be exposed to plant life that they wouldn't normally be able to see. Some botanical gardens are designed in such a manner as to offer the opportunity for hours of meandering through nature's beauty, often rich with colorful and exotic flowers, which can be a wonderful way to spend a day.
--Benefits of Botanical Gardens--
Although botanical gardens remain significant for recreation and education, the most important trend in botanical gardens worldwide in recent years has been an increasing awareness of their potential to assist in conservation efforts. Industrialization, pollution, urbanization, suburbanization, the destruction of rain forests, climate change, and the spread of invasive species as a result of globalization are all currently threatening biodiversity, with plant species going extinct every day. Botanical gardens offer a means to breed plants that may be in danger of extinction, while learning more about how to keep many different forms of plant life healthy and thriving.
