6.5 Medicinal Plant Garden (5)

(Area, demarcation, temporary/permanent arrangement, planting of plants under the shade in demarcated areas, adequacy of the plants)

An herb is a plant or any part of a plant that is used for medicinal, aromatic or culinary purposes.

For at least 5,000 years, herbs have been used by virtually all cultures for these purposes and

many modern medicines are derived from the very same plants. In today's world, an herb garden

can be useful for quick remedies, to add a different taste to an old recipe, or to ward off moths or

ants. Worldwide, there are now about 1800 botanical gardens and arboreta in about 150 countries

of which about 400 are in Europe, 200 in North America, 150 in Russia and an increasing

number in East Asia. These gardens attract about 150 million visitors a year, so it is hardly

surprising that many people gained their first exciting introduction to the wonders of the plant

world in a botanical garden.

ASWANI MEDICINAL GARDEN, Hindu College of Pharmacy, Guntur is a well-tended

area displaying a wide range of medicinal plants in 1409.15 square meters, labelled with their

botanical names. It contains about 265 different plant species including specialist plant

collections such as succulent plants, herbs, plants from particular parts of the India, tropical

plants, culinary herbs, aromatic herbs and so on. The medicinal garden is managed by the two

faculty members and two students from each class under the supervision of a senior faculty,

Dr. M.Ramaiah. The house keeping people, a gardener is taking care for water pouring, cleaning

and providing the pesticides from time to time. The medicinal plants maintained in our garden
