History
The Botanical Garden in Odesa was established in 1820, on the initiative of Governor-General Alexander Fedorovich Langeron, an expert in culture of the Sharlem Dessementom rose. In 1834–1848 it was further developed under the lead of Alexander von Nordmann, and a Central School of Gardening with a Department of Sericulture were also established.[1]
Under the guidance of Professor L.V. Reingard, professor of botany, and L.A. Rishavi, an expert in plant anatomy and physiology, plants and seeds were brought from different parts of the world, including Paris, Singapore, Melbourne, Saigon, Berlin, and Palermo.[2]
