St. Joseph's College Botanical Garden
The
Botanic Garden of St. Joseph’s College was founded over fourty years ago in the
hope that the whole campus could be developed as a botanic garden so that it
might be of scientific as well as aesthetic value. Today the Botanic Garden
serves as a living museum of plants native to India and ecosystems all around
the globe. The Botanic Garden includes thousands of plants, including those
grown under green house and outdoors— and various
specialty gardens around campus – Cacti and succulent hut – Green house
for ferns and Begonias – Aquatic
plants – Medicinal garden – Butterfly garden – Vertical garden – Vegetable
garden. Additionally, there are 3000 pressed specimens available for research
in the herbarium. The living plant specimens are the heart of the Botanic
Garden and our bridge to the rest of the botanical world, past, present, and
future.
The mission of the Botanic Garden is to foster education about the
science, beauty, and importance of the plant kingdom through the use of outdoor
and conservatory plant collections, gardens, displays, and exhibitions.
