Heritage Trees Project

Heritage Trees is a project of the Kyoto Botanical Gardens — the oldest public botanical garden in Japan — marking its 100th anniversary by highlighting the remarkable trees growing in its grounds. In collaboration with the Gardens, TogoTV is systematically illustrating 38 trees that embody the history of botany in Japan, and releasing them as a resource for education, research and conservation.

For more about Heritage Trees, see the official Kyoto Botanical Gardens website.
