The Jing'an Huayuanli Citizen Horticulture Center has opened its doors for trial operation, becoming the first of its kind in Pengpu Town.
The center features a 190-square-meter indoor space, a 226-square-meter landscaped garden and a 2,500-square-meter nature education base. Notably, an old unused railway track has been transformed into a greenway lined with plants, creating a peaceful retreat for local residents and office workers.
Throughout the year, the center will showcase over 100 varieties of plants.
Staffed by six professional horticulturists, the center offers expert advice on plant care and gardening.
Through workshops and training sessions, the center encourages residents to embrace gardening and connect with nature in an accessible, hands-on environment. (Source: Shanghai Daily)
