National Herbarium

A National Herbarium is a specialized scientific collection that preserves and displays preserved plant specimens, such as pressed leaves, flowers, and seeds. It serves as a vital resource for research, helping scientists study plant diversity, identify species, and understand ecological relationships. These collections often include detailed information about each specimen's origin, habitat, and characteristics. National herbaria support conservation efforts, education, and environmental monitoring by providing a comprehensive record of a country's plant life. They are essential tools for botanists and researchers working to learn more about plant biodiversity and ensure its preservation for future generations.
