It is home to the largest conservation nursery in the Southeast. The Garden's mission is to "To develop and maintain plant collections for the purposes of display, education, conservation, research and enjoyment."

The Repository Centre is providing access to biological material ranging from whole organisms (bacteria, fungi, plant material) to DNA samples of whole genomes (gDNA), organellar and sub-genomic clones and BACs or genes (ESTs). The core of our facility is a large automated sample storage and retrieval system. We integrate material and data from various sources all over Europe, being part of the EVOLTREE and Trees4Future networks.
