Heempark De Tenellaplas, Wildlife garden in Rockanje, Netherlands
The three-hectare garden contains a dune pond between excavated slopes, featuring over 300 plant species across diverse biotopes including marshes and dune forests.
Botanist Cees Sipkes established this educational garden in 1948 after gaining experience at his nursery De Teunisbloem and working on Thijsse's Hof in 1925.
The garden serves as an outdoor classroom where visitors learn about native Dutch plants through guided tours and educational programs throughout the year.
The visitor center opens daily from May through August during school holidays, while during other months it operates on Wednesday afternoons and weekends.
From April to September, visitors can observe fourteen different orchid species alongside gentians, parnassia, and dune roses in their natural environment.
