A fascinating book! Although plants do not have a nervous system, responsible for the control and coordination of all their functions, they respond to stimuli in their own way and adapt to the changing conditions of their life. They are characterized by their own ways of perceiving the reality around them.

Botanical gardens play an extremely important role in biodiversity conservation, nature education and scientific research. They are also exceptional places for recreation.

Our Kórnik Arboretum is an extraordinary facility - and for many reasons. For the staff of the Institute of Dendrology PAS, it is an irreplaceable training ground for research.

What does the work of scientists consist of? What does it serve?

We invite you to take a look at our work from behind the scenes.

In the 20th episode of the program in the series “Nature et Homo” we will answer these questions.
