Rhododendrons!

You may be surprised about the vast variety of colors and forms - there are more than 110 different species and registered cultivars in our collection. The introduction and selection work of Rhododendrons at the Botanical Garden began in 1957 when Professor Rihards Kondratovičs started to study this genus and organized expeditions to Caucasus mountains to collect the very first selection material. 

The central part of collection is renewed last year with a generous foundation by Boris and Ināra Teterevi.
