The Slovenia 2010 Botanical Garden in Ljubljana 2 euro commemorative coin celebrates the 200th anniversary of the oldest botanical garden in the country. The national side features a stylized depiction of the Hladnikia pastinacifolia plant, which is endemic to Slovenia and named after Franc Hladnik, the founder of the garden. This botanical institution has played a significant role in the scientific and cultural history of Ljubljana since its establishment in 1810, serving as a centre for research and the preservation of regional flora. The design honours the garden’s enduring contribution to Slovenian natural heritage and its long-standing commitment to education and environmental study. This issue was released in 2010 with a mintage of 1,000,000 coins.
