Montgomery Botanical Center, Scientific botanical garden in Coral Gables, Florida, United States.
The Montgomery Botanical Center spans 120 acres and maintains collections of 400 palm species and 202 cycad species across four distinct geographic zones.
Robert Montgomery initiated the international palm collection in 1932, and his wife Nell Montgomery Jennings established the research center in 1959 as a scientific institution.
The center facilitates knowledge exchange through scientific publications, workshops, and lectures, connecting researchers and students from multiple botanical institutions worldwide.
The Montgomery Botanical Center operates a specialized database system that tracks detailed information for each plant specimen, supporting research and conservation efforts.
Scientists at the center discovered that certain palm specimens demonstrate resistance to saltwater intrusion, providing insights into plant adaptation mechanisms.
