In August, a group of Czech botanists set out on an inspiring journey through Slovakia and Hungary. Their aim was not only to explore local botanical gardens, but also to share expertise and seek new opportunities for collaboration. The study trip brought together representatives of the Union of Botanical Gardens of the Czech Republic, who visited several important institutions. The delegation was led by RNDr. Pavel Sekerka, Ph.D., President of the Union, and among the participants was the Head of the Faculty of Tropical AgriSciences Botanical Garden, Ing. Anežka Daníčková.
