The Garden is a centre for public enjoyment in addition to its principal function of supplying plant material for teaching and research within the University of Dundee.
Located in 9.5 hectares of south facing, gently sloping land near the banks of the River Tay, the Garden features many species of indigenous British plants as well as representative collections of important plants from all the continents of the world.
The native plant communities represent the range of plant associations from montane to coastal habitats. There are also groupings of plants which demonstrate adaptations for survival, including carnivory, specialised pollination and seed dispersal mechanisms.
