The Botanical Garden of the University of Innsbruck ((ドイツ語:Botanischer Garten der Universität Innsbruck)) is a 2-hectare botanical garden operated by the University of Innsbruck. It is located in Hötting at Sternwartestraße 15, Innsbruck, Austria. The gardens are open at no cost every day; its greenhouses are open on Thursday afternoons for an admission fee. The garden was established around 1911, replacing an earlier garden elsewhere. It was redesigned between 1948-1965, and its alpine rock garden was revised 1987-1990 on modern systemic principles. Its first greenhouse was constructed in 1909, with three additional greenhouses added 1977-1979, a succulent house in 1993, and a sixth greenhouse for container plants built in 1997. Today the garden contains more than 5000 species organized within the following major sections: * Alpinum (more than 2000 m2) - a major alpine garden, divided geographically and geologically, containing more than 1000 plants from all, non tropical, alpine regions of the world. Includes an area for ferns, a moor, and four ponds. * Arboretum - woody plants including Gymnosperms, Angiosperms, and perennial plants. * Cactus houses (330 m2) - about 500 cactus species. * Cactus-Succulent-Mediterranean House (280 m2) - primarily plants from the Mediterranean, the Canary Islands, the colder regions of Australia and New Zealand, as well as African succulent plants and American cacti. * Fern house (70 m2) - epiphytes, climbing ferns, and water ferns. * Fragrance and touch garden (built 1999) - the first in Austria, all plants labeled in Braille. * Medicinal, poisonous, and spice plants - more than 300 plants ordered by their effective substances (alkaloids, glycocholic acid, tannins, ethereal oils, vitamins, etc. * Orchid house * Succulent house - over 550 succulent plants, mainly from South Africa, the Canary Islands, and South America. * Systematic garden (1000 m2, rebuilt 1993) * Tropical greenhouse (287 m2, height above 12 m2) - flowering and useful tropical plants. == See also == * Alpengarten Patscherkofel, the university's alpine garden atop Patscherkofel * List of botanical gardens 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Botanical Garden of the University of Innsbruck」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
