ŠPAKOVÁ, Markéta
This thesis is dedicated to educational programs in Bečov Botanic Garden. The aim of this thesis was to extend the current offer to other botanical themes. Dendrological themes were selected for new educational programs. In total, three new educational programs were created. The first one is dealing with conifers, the second with cones of conifers and the third with broad-leaved species. All new programs include worksheets and methodological instruction for lectures and teachers. Tutorial tools (determination key, scale, educational box) were also created for the cone educational program.

In total, there were passported 470 woody plants, 104 of them were coniferous and 366 broad-leaved species. There were identified 30 taxa of coniferous in 9 genera and 55 taxa of broad-leaved in 31 genera. All the woody plants were drawn into the plan, which is also part of this work (scale 1:600).

Proposal for reconstruction of the historic Beaufort rock garden in the Bečov nad Teplou town (district Karlovy Vary)
ŠPAKOVÁ, Markéta
This thesis will build upon my undergraduate dissertation. It is enriched by the new information about the original historic Beaufort rock garden. It explores the Beaufort rock garden and includes points of view of the experts on its condition today. The following part of the thesis comprises of a proposal for a renewal of the current Bečov botanical garden framework and of a more detailed focus on few selected rocks and their initial planting. The main contribution of this work is an expansion of the total number of the initially grown plants (from 654 to 1228) thanks to the newly found resources and to the writing down all the newly discovered information from the archival research of the original historical documents dated from 1908 to 1937. All the documents were catalogued by the author of the original concept alpina, the head gardener Johann Koditek. What we do know from the original documentation is how the area expanded between the years 1922 - 1927 with the purchase of the surrounding land. It is clear that the expenses for the land were about 18 098,31crowns and for various works, building construction, plants, materials and wages the total sum was 468 336.07 crowns. The exact mounting plans for landscape park were rediscovered (10 plans and inventories in total) and 16 plans and inventories in total of 47 for the rock garden. The chart with the total number of the originally cultivated taxa also consists of the surviving taxa in the area (22 specific herb species + 43 specific tree species and 12 tree genera). The synonymy of the original plants was created for three selected rocks and surveyed their purchase options today. Most of the taxa will return back to the garden, only rock no. 8 will have to be planted differently due to the lack of light on the original plants. Keywords: origin

Flora of Beaufort rock garden in the Bečov nad Teplou town (district Karlovy Vary)
ŠPAKOVÁ, Markéta
This thesis focuses on the analysis of species treasure of the former Beaufort rock garden in Bečov nad Teplou, which was developing intensively in the period between the World Wars. At that time, it was one of the most important collections of plants in our country. Due to a forced departure of the ducal family and their gardeners in 1945, the function of the rockery came to an end. The fragments of that rock garden are the foundation of Bečov Botanical Garden these days. The main contribution of this work is the comprehensive compilation of the initially cultivated plants and retaining the remaining elements of the historical rock garden in a native landscape for their further use. For this purpose, a complete research of a historical and present materials has been drawn up. To the present days, overall 16 herbal taxa have been preserved and other 24 taxa of our native flora should be kept as a typical sample of some biotopes. Eighty-three species of woody taxa have been preserved till now (we know only the genus of 26 of them). These taxa have been preserved from 1300 - 1800 originally grown plant taxa (from which 654 are already known from historical materials). The suggestions, for what purposes the garden should be used for and the plans of its planting are also a part of this thesis.
