Plant collections
Plant collections are organized groups of various plant species cultivated and maintained by institutions like botanical gardens, arboretums, or research centers. These collections aim to preserve plant diversity, study plant characteristics, and support conservation efforts. They often include different types of plants—such as flowering plants, trees, and shrubs—grouped thoughtfully for research, education, and display. By maintaining diverse collections, these institutions help protect endangered species, advance scientific knowledge, and inspire public appreciation for plant beauty and importance.
