    "The Makaryev monastery was converted to a botanical garden supplying hothouse fruits to Russian cities." (AB). This took place in 1882 at the Makarievskaya pustyn (Makaryev Hermitage) situated 4kms N of the Solovetsky Kremlin. Both outdoor and indoor cultivation takes place, making use of the micro-climate of a sheltered valley as well as hot water pipes. They are now known as Solovki or Khutor Gorka Botanical Gardens and are "famed" for the very wide temperature range 31/-35 C in which they operate. See

    "Formerly known as Mountain Garden, the Botanical Garden serves as a refuge for threatened species where the plants produced in the garden will eventually be returned to their natural habitat. As of 2005, not less than 3,200 plant specimens comprising of 400 species grow in the garden. Botanical Garden plays an important role as a nature education center for the public by bringing the plants to the visitors rather than bringing the visitors to the plants in locations that are often inaccessible. More importantly, it ensures that the natural habitat of the plants remains undisturbed."
