Arboretum Brno, Educational arboretum in Ponava, Czech Republic.

The Arboretum Brno extends across 11 hectares of land, containing over 4,000 orchid species, 2,000 perennials, and 4,000 different types of woody plants.

Established in 1938 near Mendel University, the arboretum relocated to its current location in 1968 due to the expansion needs of the educational institution.

The garden cultivates Mediterranean plants alongside specimens from California, China, Australia, and New Zealand, reflecting global botanical diversity through five thematic sections.

Visitors can enter through three gates: the main entrance from Tř. Generála Píky, the lower entrance near Boby center, and a footbridge access for students.

The collection includes 300 different tillandsias and 350 cultivars of large-flowered irises, maintained within specialized greenhouses that preserve specific climate conditions.
