It is one of the largest botanical gardens in the world with an extensive collection of living plants in addition to a herbarium of over 4 million specimens. The current garden was established in 1958 after it moved from the centre of Brussels; the former site is now the Botanical Garden of Brussels. Researchers at the garden conduct research particularly on Belgian and African plants. <br><br> The Botanic Garden contains about 18,000 plant species - about 6% of all known plant species of the world. Half are in greenhouses, the other half, including cultivated and indigenous plants, are outdoors. The gardens are grouped around the castle and lake of the Bouchout domain.Ann Bogaerts, Head of the HerbariumMeise Botanic Garden, Belgiumann.bogaerts@botanicgardenmeise.be or curatorhttp://www.botanicalcollections.beMeise Botanic Garden, BelgiumAnn Bogaerts, Head of the HerbariumCollection ManagerCONTENT_PROVIDERann.bogaerts@botanicgardenmeise.be or curatorTo the extent possible under law, the publisher has waived all rights to these data and has dedicated them to the CC BY-NC (Attribution-Non-Commercial)Users can copy, redistribute the material in any medium or format, remix, transform, and build upon the material.
