Royal Botanic Garden Sydney, The

Product Description

Fine trees have grown up in their thousands since Darwin admired Sydney's young Botanic Garden 180 years ago - and millions of visitors each year now share his joy in its spectacular Harbour setting.
There is much more to the Garden than the living collection on open air display. The book travels through the life of the Garden from its early collectors and directors to a contemporary botanic garden walk with world-class scientific research, magnificent Herbarium and Library collections, and engaging programs bringing plants and knowledge to the community.
