The Nairobi Arboretum
The Nairobi Arboretum was established in 1907 by Mr. E Batiscombie, the Deputy Chief Conservator of Forests, as a 30.4 hectares site for exotic tree species trials. It is an emblematic space located in the center of Nairobi next to the State House.
- Nairobi Arboretum was gazetted in 1932.
- It is distinguished by a collection of 330 tree species planted in park-like patterns.
- Since its founding the Nairobi Arboretum has been under the management of the Forest Department (FD) and now Kenya Forest Service.
- It was managed effectively for many decades, but from the 1970s till the early 1990s management levels declined due to increasingly inadequate government funding.
