The Enver Gareev Botanical Garden Research Institute of the National Academy of Sciences plans to plant 5,000 trees at the Bishkek Botanical Garden in Kyrgyzstan by May 2027.
Nurlan Albanov, the director of the institute, stated that the organization has already finalized the planting layout and began work with a contractor. The project focuses on using plant species that are adapted to the local climate, and the institute intends to work with local nurseries to source these plants.
The garden is currently undergoing reconstruction to remove invasive shrub species. Albanov explained that red dogwood previously created a dense forest that hindered movement and choked out other plants by depriving them of nutrients. While some existing trees were affected during the removal of these shrubs, the institute is clearing the area to allow for new growth.
