The garden aims to protect over 20,000 species of plants, including 6,000 species of economic plants. 95% of rare and endangered species in South China will be effectively ex-situ conserved, providing original plant resources for green development.

At the same time the garden will offer a natural environment where visitors can learn more about plants and increase their awareness about the importance of flora diversity.
