Expert advice |
|
|
|
|
|
Visitors and
citizens often address the Administration of the Garden
looking for advice connected with the cultivation of
plants and with botanical problems generally. Expert
associates do their best to help when it is a matter of
relatively short or simple requests. Any lengthy problem
related to the identity of species or details about
cultivation, and translations (jobs that require a lot of
time and work) have to be charged for. |

Guided tours |
|
|
|
|
|
Every year many groups visit
the Garden, groups of various ages and interests; there
are preschool children and elementary and secondary school
pupils, there are students, members of the public and
experts. For all such groups we can lay on a guided tour
through the Garden (adapted in its style and content to
the individual group). The tour lasts about one hour, and
there is a one 100 kn
charge for this service, for a group
of at most 15 persons.
Guided tour has to be booked at the Administration at
least 5 days in advance!

You can find
out more about the Garden and its collection from the
Pocket Guide to the Botanical Garden, which was produced
in 2002. The guide contains nuggets of useful information
and colourful photos, a map of the Garden and a small
botanical glossary. It is available in Croatia, English
and German (for a price of 10 kuna) in the info kiosk by
the main entrance to the Garden.
Here you can also buy
souvenirs (biros, pads and badges) as well as postcards
with photographs of plants from the Croatian flora that we
cultivate in the garden. |

Plant sale |
|
|
|
|
|
We sell plants that were propagated during the winter and
spring, and were not used for the collection. The plants
are classically propagated and therefore very resistant
and acclimatized to Zagreb's continental climate. We sell
mostly garden perennials, shrubs and some popular trees
(ginkgo, dawn redwood), on occasion even decorative
'house' plants. The prices are moderate, ranging from 5 to
20 kn (100-1000 kn for very old and large specimens:
palms, ficus trees, Mediterranean shrubs).
