The native plant resources are subject to taste preferences as part of the cultural heritage of each nation, as well as for their disease resistance, and for their greater flexibility and better adaptability to the conditions they have been traditionally grown, or are still grown in.. The main places where local species diversity may still be found in vivo are the home gardens. Bulgarian home gardens can be defined as micro systems with a high degree of plant species diversity of vegetables, grain legumes, fruit species, some medicinal and aromatic plants, vines, alfalfa, flowers, spices, etc. encountered in different combinations in various parts of the country. Maintenance and preservation in time of the old varieties and shapes are very closely linked to their traditional use, habits, dialects, sentiments, family celebrations, religious traditions and rituals.
