    Information on the red list plants in Georgia can be found under cbd.int/doc/world/ge/ge-nr-05-en.pdf

    At present, the Red List of Georgia contains 139 animal species and 56 wooded plant species; 275 species of vascular plants are endemic to Georgia. 152 species of Georgian endemic flora (approximately 60% of endemic species) are categorized as endangered.

      Anyone who wants to not only breathe deeply but also reflect in the Batumi Botanical Garden should take time for a detour to the Red List Plant Trail. This small, unpretentious path is slightly hidden in the upper part of the garden – and leads right into the quiet urgency of nature conservation.

      Along the narrow path, discreet signs not only name plants, but also tell stories: of rare plants, of habitats that are disappearing, and of attempts to counteract their disappearance. Over 150 endemic plant species in Georgia are considered endangered – here, the abstract term "Red List" suddenly takes on very concrete leaves, colors, and shapes.

      What can I expect?

      A simple, easy-to-follow nature trail with explanatory stations. The plants seem unspectacular – but if you read up on them, you'll quickly realize: Something precious is growing here. Species such as Daphne adenantha and rare ferns are not only botanically fascinating, but also symbolic of what's at stake.


      Practical Information

      The path is part of a signposted network of paths in the garden and can easily be integrated into a 1.5- to 2-hour circular walk. Sturdy footwear is recommended, especially after rain. Shade is plentiful, and seating is scarce – but not necessary: the path thrives on slow walking.
