植物园简介 

唐山植物园位于南湖公园南部，总面积55.45公顷，总投资2.25亿元，是集观赏、科普、生态、经济、文化、科研六大功能为一体的新型互动式植物园。

唐山植物园原为采煤沉降区，地形高低不平且比较破碎，粉煤灰及废墟遍布，土壤条件极差，为植物引种带来很大难度，植物园建设遵循植物复绿、改善生态环境的原则，通过表土转换、化学改良、施加有机物质等措施改善土壤条件，达到植物生长所需的必要条件，收集露地植物3000余种，温室植物1000余种，将建成唐山市植物种质资源库和工业废弃地生态修复示范基地。

    植物分类园按照克朗奎斯特分类系统组成游览路线，各分区重点展示同一科、属或同一类植物。根据不同种或品种之间的颜色、花期的不同，组成多样植物景观。结合景观空间的布局，设置了玉兰园、松柏园、牡丹园、碧桃园、海棠园、锦葵园、梅园等21个园区。

Introduction of Tangshan Botanical Garden  

Tangshan Botanical Garden (TSBG) is situated at the south of South Lake Park, covering an area of 55.45 hectares. The total investment of the garden is 0.25billion yuan. TSBG’s mission is to develop and maintain plant collections for display, conservation, education and research. 

The garden was once a coal mining subsidence area, with rugged, broken terrain. Coal dust and debris were scattered around this area. In order to improve soil and soil fertility, we transform the topsoil and apply chemical and organic materials to the soil. TSBG’s construction follows the principles of revegetation and ecological restoration. It is preservation of over 3,000 species of plants in 21 specific categorized plants gardens and 1000 species of plants in the greenhouse, which is going to be the seedbank of Tangshan as well as a model base for ecological restoration of industrial wasteland.  

The garden is divided ,according to the Cronquist system，into different zones. Each zone exhibits plants of the same class, genus, which will reveal a variety of plant sceneries by species of different color and blooming period. There are 21 specific categorized plants gardens in TSBG, such as Magnolia Garden, Herbaceous Peony Garden, Ornamental Peach Garden, Crabapple-Cotoneaster Garden and Mei Flower Garden.
