/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "Yerevan Botanical Garden was founded in 1935 on
80 hectares of semi-desert land. Thanks to the work of many experts
specialists 1,650 trees and shrubs belonging to 207 species and 75
families were planted and grown in the botanical garden," Zhirayr
Vardanyan, director of the Institute of Biology of RA NAS, told a
press conference on November 11.
According to him, since 2004 the period of revival of Yerevan Botanical
Garden started. Despite the state budgets for science in 2010 will
reach 85 million AMD, the full restoration of Yerevan Botanical Garden
requires more money, Zhirayr Vardanyan said.
According to Director of the Yerevan office of the International
Foundation for Protection of Wildlife, Karen Manvelyan, the Georgian
experience in attracting extra-budgetary funds can be useful.
