The Garden

The Garden

The cultivated part of the garden is 20 hectars and here grow 20,000 different species and cultivars from more than 130 countries. The arboretum with a large collection of trees is 55 hectare and situated in the nature reserve Änggårdsbergen.

In the coming years, major changes will take place at the Botanical Garden. New modern greenhouses with an accompanying visitor centre are being built on the same site as the old ones. The project is the largest in the garden’s more than 100‑year history. Construction is scheduled to be completed in 2028, and the facilities are expected to open to visitors in 2030.
