At the University of Latvia Botanical Garden (UL BG), the most vibrant and much-loved season of the year is beginning – the blooming of rhododendrons. This year, visitors are invited to take part in a special activity and embark on a rhododendron journey by visiting both locations of the UL rhododendron collection – the Botanical Garden in Riga and the UL Rhododendron Nursery “Babīte”, which together form the largest rhododendron collection in the Baltic States.
After a five-year break, the Palm House at the University of Latvia Botanical Garden reopened in December 2025 and once again welcomes visitors.
The Tropical Butterfly House has been open to the public since the end of March and will be accessible to visitors during the warm months.
