Over 7,000 different plant species and varieties from around the world make up the University Botanical Garden at Givat Ram, Jerusalem. It is the largest botanical garden in Israel, spanning 150 dunams. The collection of living plants in the garden is the largest in the Middle East, and is spread across six geographical sections: Southern Africa, Europe, North America, Australia, South-West and Central Asia, and the Mediterranean. The garden's sections simulate the plant landscapes of each region and display spectacular blooms throughout the year. Alongside them, the garden features a tropical greenhouse and a desert greenhouse, which create a space that simulates their respective specific climates, containing plants that grow in such habitats in nature.
