Alexandru Borza

Alexandru Borza (1887, in Alba Iulia – 3 September 1971, in Cluj) was a Romanian botanist, Greek-Catholic priest and honorary archpriest of Cluj.

As part of a group of professors, physicians, soldiers, and others, he helped bring Scouting to Romania.

For this role, he was briefly arrested in 1948, after the Communists came to power in Romania.

He is credited with first advocating for the legal protection of Nymphaea lotus var.
