Pretoria National Botanical Garden, Botanical garden in Brummeria, Pretoria, South Africa.

The 76-hectare garden features a central quartzite ridge that creates two distinct climate zones, accommodating different plant species on each side.

Founded in 1946 on former farmland, the garden opened to the public in 1958 and became part of the South African National Biodiversity Institute in 2004.

The garden maintains collections of medicinal plants traditionally used by South African communities and conducts educational programs about indigenous flora.

The garden operates from 8 AM to 6 PM daily, with a cashless payment system for entrance fees and facility rentals.

The garden contains fifty hectares of developed gardens featuring South African flora, including cycads, succulents, and medicinal plant collections.
