A stroll through this garden recently assured that awakens our nose smells aromatic, curiosity rough touch many leaves or inspires us to see the details of our particular Mediterranean flora.


The Joan Brossa Gardens are probably the last great Mountain Garden. In it we can find an amazing diversity of all kinds of plants, both exotic and native. Many of these plants are also part of the Mediterranean landscape that surrounds us, and ultimately give us the opportunity to learn the most relevant features of adaptation to our characteristic climate of the city and its relationship with the natural landscape of our house. Taking a tour of various areas of the Garden we can recognize some of the plants of our forests, shrubs and parts and learn how to adapt -especially to summer drought- using the different senses: smell, touch, sight, hearing and taste to find out how they are. If you love cooking, health or even cosmetics, you can discover a good number of plants used for these purposes. Questions and exercises you can do on the site: What are the main features of our Mediterranean plants? Would you be able to identify a tree that bears any fruit related to our well-known Mediterranean cuisine? Which one? What more familiar smells could you identify in the garden typical of our Mediterranean plants? Do you dare say what plants they can be? More information in The Atlas of Biodiversity
