Botanic Garden Meise is one of the largest botanic gardens in the world. The living plant collections contribute to the botanical and horticultural research as well as to the education and conservation activities of the Garden.
Three systematic collections form the core of the living collection, the Herbetum, the Fruticetum and the Coniferetum. Nearly all hardy or 'half-hardy' genera are represented in these collections.
There are also specialist collections of species and cultivars in the genera Quercus, Rhododendron, Hydrangea, Acer and Magnolia. Other thematic collections are the medicinal plants, North American forest species and Mediterranean plants. Many plants are displayed in shrubberies and mixed borders all over the park. Rare or unusual tree species and cultivars are dispersed over the lawns and decorate the landscape dominated by indigenous trees. Other important collections are Rosa and Paeonia.
Particularly well-represented plant families in the outdoor collections are Pinaceae (43% of extant species of the world), Aceraceae (42%), Betulaceae (39%), Hydrangeaceae (37%), Caprifoliaceae (33%), Cornaceae (31%), Cupressaceae (20%), Berberidaceae (16%), Ranunculaceae (14%) and Rosaceae (13%).
