JARDIN BOTANICO NACIONAL, Chile
Other Gardens, Collections and Nurseries


This national botanical garden in Chile is only worth the visit, if you are in town.
It is located right outside Valparaiso, in a huge valley. I visited in 2012.


It is mainly dedicated to trees like these Chilean palm trees.; Jubaea chilensis


Some parts have endemic plants from remote islands, requiring a special climate


The nursery was closed when I visited the BG


The cacti house is large, and have quite some cacti from around Chile
