Giardini botanici Hanbury, Mediterranean botanical garden in Ventimiglia, Italy.

The garden covers 18 hectares on a steep peninsula extending into the Mediterranean Sea, featuring 2500 plant species adapted to coastal conditions.

Sir Thomas Hanbury established the gardens in 1867 by purchasing Palazzo Orengo property, transforming it into a scientific botanical collection with expert assistance.

The gardens maintain an annual seed distribution program since 1883, exchanging specimens with botanical institutions worldwide to promote plant research and conservation.

Located at Corso Montecarlo 43 in Mortola Inferiore, the garden offers electric car assistance for visitors with mobility needs upon reservation.

The garden contains specialized collections of agaves, aloes, salvias, and rare specimens like Araucaria cunninghamii and Casimiroa edulis in their Mediterranean climate setting.
