Public parks are places of recreational amenity which play vital role as urban green spaces for improving quality of citizen's life whereas botanic gardens are the centers of education, research and conservation of plants diversity. This paper has tried to appreciate Jillani Park, Lahore in view of elements of botanic gardens. A checklist of public facilities and botanic garden's elements was developed for the park to assess the need of improvement in characteristics of botanic gardens. Park provides range of public facilities and has sufficient potential to attract its visitors for promotion of plant conservation but at the moment no such activities are taken in consideration. Therefore, an improvement plan was proposed to designate this park as first example of a Botanic-cum-Public Park in City Lahore which will help in promoting and conserving native plant species.
