About the King Saud University Botanic Garden
This botanic garden has started in 1994 within the university campus to protect the rare and endangered plants. Although the garden is for students' practical purposes, the overall idea of establishing a garden in the University is to make people aware of the importance of botanic gardens and to train them in the planning, planting and protection of such gardens; and to persuade landscape architects and Municipal Authorities to use native plants in their plantings whenever and wherever suitable.
