Spatiotemporal Pattern Evolution and Driving Mechanisms of World Botanical Gardens Over Five Centuries

Integrative Conservation, EarlyView.
This study presents a comprehensive review of the 500‐year spatiotemporal evolution of global botanical gardens, identifying three major development stages—initial exploration (1543–1699), steady expansion (1700–1899), and rapid proliferation (1900–2020)—with six distinct sub‐stages.
