The garden was established in 1912 on one hectare. It was enlarged between 1914 and 1915 with the installation of the alpine garden, which contains about 500 different plant species. From 1925 to 1927, it was further expanded by an additional 2.5 hectares to the west for its rhododendron collection. By 1952, it contained about 3000 species.
