Education is one of the main tasks of the Hortus. We offer different educational programs for primary and secondary education. The Hortus believes that every child should have access to nature education and with that grow awareness of the importance of biodiversity for the world.

The Hortus collection contains a large number of (sub)tropical container plants. In the summer they are exhibited throughout the garden. In winter they have to stay inside. These plants and trees ask for sturdy containers. For years, the typical Hortus containers are provided by Jac Blom. Recently, this company started making containers out of Accoya® wood. The Hortus strives to replace all present containers with these Accoya® versions. You can help the Hortus reach this goal!
Accoya® is modified timber in which a process called acetylation, a cutting-edge patented technology, enables it to it resist rot, defy the elements and stay strong for decades. With the adoption of a containerplant in the Hortus, you not only invest in the maintenance of the Hortus collection, you also invest in nature, sustainability and the environment around us.
You can adopt a container from € 500, – per year for a minimum period of three years. You will receive a Company Year Card to visit the tree with your employees and / or business relations. This card also grants you a 10 percent discount when booking our Oranjerie venue.
