History

The Botanical Garden in Odessa 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]
