The Botanical Garden of Lausanne invites you to discover nearly 4,000 alpine, medicinal, carnivorous and tropical plants... As you walk through the garden, you will come across an arboretum, a pharmaceutical garden, a collection of rock plants from all over the world and various species of protected plants. A hot greenhouse gathers tropical plants, utilitarian plants, spices, as well as a collection of orchids, while the succulent plant greenhouse gathers edible species. The Botanical Museum, open only during exhibitions or by appointment, houses a specialized library and preserves the botanical collections of the Canton of Vaud, representing a total of more than 1,000,000 samples. Various herbaria can be consulted: Waldensian, Swiss, historical, as well as painted herbaria.
