The basic operations of these two adjoining metropolitan oases is secured through community/state funding. However, to allow for major culturally relevant projects and events as well as educational programs in the future we will depend on additional public support. Thus, the foundation “Stiftung Palmengarten und Botanischer Garten Frankfurt am Main” was established with a generous endowment by the late Eleonore Beiser, a long-time friend and supporter of the Palmengarten. We are convinced that many visitors and friends of both gardens are aware of the legacy and great responsibility we all have in trying to maintain and promote this great cultural and scientific heritage.

In cordial appreciation
