The Nikitsky Botanical Garden
When you come to the Crimea don't miss the opportunity of visiting its Southern coast, which is popular not only because of lots wonderful sightseeing objects, but the unique Crimean flora. To obtain a deeper insight into Crimean flora you must go to the Nikitsky Botanical Garden. The Nikita (small village where the garden is situated) is only 16 km from Yalta. To get the Garden in Nikita (from Simferopol) you can by marshrutka (mini bus) which goes from Simferopol railway station to Yalta, or by trolleybus ( the departure from railway station in Simferopol ), it will take much more longer, the trolleybuses are very slow. You should also remember that the entrance to the Nikitsky Botanical Garden not right at the bus stop, it will take about 20 minutes to reach it. The way back will take even more, when you finish your visit to Nikitsky Botanical Garden, you'll be almost at the seashore of Black sea. The square of Nikitsky Botanical Garden is 40 hectares. The Garden consists of four separate parks: the Upper Park, the Lower, the Maritime Park and the park on Cape Montedor.
The story of its foundation is linked with the cultivation of the Crimean lands after the Crimea was joined to Russia in 1783. Attracted by such favorable natural conditions, the Russian aristocracy came here to build palaces and summer residences, surrounding them with parks and gardens. This land was privately owned and frequently changed hands. The Nikitsky Botanical Garden was called upon to fill the gap. It was founded in the September of 1812 as the imperial botanical garden. For this purpose the site was chosen near Nikita, a village founded by Greek settlers 4 centuries before. Ch. Stevens, the most knowledgeable botanist in Russia and an expert in horticulture, was appointed Director of the Garden.
The Nikitsky Botanical Garden's plant collections number more than 28,000 species, varieties and hybrids. Numerous visitors to the Garden show special interest in the great variety of subtropical trees. Unlike other arboretums in our country where the laying out follows the botanical principle, the Nikitsky arboretum features decorative planning. The incomparable collections of exotic plants are arranged according to a single artistic design which presents a superb example of park landscaping.
These are the most interesting plants – Chinese fan palms, slender pyramidal cypresses, two towering 90-year-old giant sequoias, columnar English yews flank, Atlas cedars, stone pines, tree species cultivated in the Nikitsky Botanical Garden from the early 19th century, majestic redwood, the weeping glaucous Atlas cedar, a truly natural wonder whose boughs drop to the very ground. Of special interest are the trees still living today which are descended from plants of the Carboniferous Period, namely the ginkgo, metasequoia, the large-fruited and small-fruited strawberry tree, Montezuma pine.
The Nikitsky Rosarium – various species of roses of native and foreign selection. The mother rose collection numbers more than 2,000 varieties.
The Rock Garden – low drought-resistant perennials which flower the year round and are massed among natural Crimean boulders.

Are there any other flower gardens in Austin besides Zilker Botanical?
Do you know of any?
Ladybird Johnson Wildflower Center down south is nice, especially when the wildflowers are blooming. I haven't been other times of the year, so I'm not sure if they have year round flowers.
