Abstract
The existence of mankind depends on the existence of plants and organisms. An important step towards protection of the local and endangered plants can be conservation of the local plant communities in the premises of educational and government institutions.

Of these 113 species, 12 are shrubs (11 %), 33 Herbs (29 %) 29 climbers (26 %) and 39 species belong to trees (34 %).
