The University Botanic Gardens’ mission is to provide information about the flora and work for the conservation of rare and endangered plants. Their main objective is to carry out scientific research and design and provide ecological education programmes for various target groups. The Greenhouse reveals the splendour of the tropics – orchids, ferns, bromelias. The Garden has a wonderful collection of cacti species, peonies, clematises, and bulbous plants in addition to the great variety of trees and bushes. The University Botanic Garden, Sofia was founded in 1892 by the first Bulgarian professor in botany Prof. Stefan Georgiev. It is a member of the Botanic Gardens Conservation International (BGCI).
