Abstract

With the aim of presenting to the public the collection of medicinal and poisonous plants of the Pharmaceutical Botanical Garden "Fran Kušan" of the Faculty of Pharmacy and Biochemistry of the University of Zagreb, in this paper we provide an overview of the herbaceous species and succulents that are grown there today. By comparing the data contained in the Garden's paper cards and electronic database with the actual situation in the Garden's arboretum and two greenhouses, an insight into the current state of the representation of herbaceous species and succulents was obtained. Research has established that in the arboretum today grow 689 taxa of herbaceous plants of which 447 medicinal, and 132 poisonous. In two greenhouses, there are 80 taxa from areas with Mediterranean, tropical and subtropical climate. Of the plants in the greenhouses, 45 taxa are medicinal and 23 are poisonous. Therefore, a total of 769 taxa of herbaceous plants and succulents grow in the Garden today, of which 492 are medicinal and 155 are poisonous taxa. 127 taxa are both medicinal and poisonous to humans at the same time.
