Location and description

The upper part of the garden, covering some 4.5 hectares (11 acres), includes an herb garden with over 300 species of herbs. There are also over 200 species of flowers and fruit trees. A variety of animals, including horses, rabbits, and various types of birds are also present.[3] The names of flora are written in both Latin and Indonesian, for easier identification.[3]

History

[edit]

Development of the Sukorambi Botanical Garden began in 2006. Initially, the Regent of Jember, Abdul Kahar Muzakir, intended to use it for his family's recreation. However, after receiving input from friends and acquaintances, he ultimately decided to make the garden open to the public.[3] The garden was formally established on 24 February 2007.[4]

The garden had an average of 50 visitors daily in 2011, with numbers increasing to 200 on the weekends.[3] By December 2012 that average had increased to 300 visitors daily, with 1,000 visitors per day visiting during the Christmas holidays. During that holiday the garden was one of Jember's most popular tourist attractions, together with Papuma Beach and Rembangan.[5]

One thought on “Cannabaceae”

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
