1. Conseravation and use of native plant species


 
 Indigenous and common plant species in our surroundings are being rapidly lost.
  Our purpose is to use and conserve such species for environmental education, landscaping material, and the vegetation recovery, etc. by positively introducing and managing
if necessary.
  We are studying the life cycle, environment of habitats, ecopshyology of seed germination, propagation strategy, and the management methods for the population of the indigenous plant which has been still remained around the urban area.
