The Botanical Garden of Naples, Italy, has three greenhouses: the Monumental Greenhouse Merola, dating back to the time of the foundation of the Garden (1810) and hosting a selection of flowering plants; the Greenhouse Califano, the largest one (5,000 sqm), built in 1967, hosting the vast majority of collections, among which one of the most representative collection in the world of the very rare Cycadophyta; and the Tropical Greenhouse De Luca, more recently built (2005), which hosts the reconstruction of several tropical environments, among which a mangrove forest. The cultivated species and their scientific and didactic significance are described for each Greenhouse.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
