A hortus siccus? #Botany and #horticulture go back a very long way. This is just part of a fantastic display put on by Gen Herb curator Jacek today for a tour looking at the relationship between gardening and taxonomic botany from the late 1600s to today.

Frances Harriet Henslow ~ daughter of Darwin's mentor John #Henslow and wife of Kew's former director Joseph Hooker ~ was born #OnThisDay in 1825. This bracelet of carved #peach stones was donated by her to the Museum of #EconomicBotany

Turns out there is a #Darwin quote for every occasion:
‘What a pity there cannot be 2 sets of men in our Government, one to do all the miserable squabbling & the other to attend to the real interests of the country.’ Charles Darwin writing to Thomas Henry Farrer, 23 October 1879

"The first purpose of a garden is to be a place of quiet beauty such as will give delight to the eye and refreshment to the mind" said Gertrude Jekyll.
It's as true today as it was then. #BlueMonday
