Istituto ed orto botanico, Botanical garden and research center in Trieste, Italy.
The botanical garden extends across 4.2 hectares, featuring two greenhouses that contain 80 succulent plant species and specimens from temperate climate zones.
The institution emerged in 1963 on the former grounds of Villa Valerio, a property once belonging to a chocolate manufacturing magnate.
The garden maintains collections of Mediterranean plants, tropical species, and local flora while supporting research collaborations with scientific institutions.
Visitors receive free entry on the first Sunday of each month and can access seasonal exhibitions focused on regional plant life.
One hectare contains specimens like Aesculus hippocastanum and Laurus nobilis, while natural areas display Carpinus orientalis and Pinus nigra trees.
