National Nursery Dr. Alejandro Gallinal

The Vivero Nacional Dr. Alejandro Gallinal (National Nursery Dr. Alejandro Gallinal) is Uruguay's state-run plant nursery, operated under the Ministerio de Ganadería, Agricultura y Pesca (MGAP), the country's Ministry of Livestock, Agriculture and Fisheries. It functions as a public body rather than a private commercial brand, producing and selling seedlings (plantines) of both indigenous and exotic tree species. Its official web presence is hosted on the Uruguayan government portal gub.uy, where it publishes price lists for its nursery stock. The nursery's catalogue, as shown on its official page, spans a wide range of species identified by both scientific and common names. Examples include Sesbania punicea (Acacia mansa), Schinus molle (Anacahuita), Araucaria bidwillii and Araucaria heterophylla (Araucaria), Acer palmatum (Acer), Schinus terebinthifolius (Anacahuita Paraguaya), Quercus suber (Alcornoque), Parapiptadenia rígida (Angico), Psidium cattleyanum varieties (Arazá amarillo and Arazá rojo), Quillaja brasiliensis (Árbol del Jabón), Brachychiton populneum (Brachichito), Cercis siliquastrum (Árbol de Judea), Blepharocalyx salicifolius (Arrayán), Moquiniastrum polymorphum (Cambará), Ginkgo biloba (Árbol de los 40 escudos), and Sebastiania commersoniana, among others. Plants are offered in containers of 10, 20 and 30 litres, with some larger species also available in half-tank (medio tanque) sizes, and prices are quoted in Uruguayan pesos. Because it is a government institution, the Vivero Nacional is not a conventional commercial brand with shareholders or a stock listing. It is described in structured data as a public body and as a cultural heritage monument of Uruguay. Its role is to supply tree seedlings — including native species of ecological and landscape value — to the public, supporting reforestation, landscaping and conservation efforts in Uruguay. The nursery is named after Dr. Alejandro Gallinal, a figure commemorated in its official title.
