Summary

The Germà Macià Botanical Garden, located within the UNESCO-listed Cultural Landscape of Serra de Tramuntana on Mallorca, stands as a pivotal collection of 469 plant taxa, including 28 endemics unique to the Balearic Islands. Established in 1956 by Germà Macià, inspired by Padre Bonafé's work, this garden has become a cornerstone for both conservation and education. It collaborates with public entities to protect threatened species while engaging educational institutions and society to promote awareness of the archipelago's rich plant diversity. The garden's dual role in preserving native and global flora underscores its significance as a living repository and a catalyst for biodiversity conservation efforts.
