Work on paper - Simon Grant: Part 5 of the Explorers, David Douglas in the Land of Giants, Published 1998
David Douglas (1799-1834) journeyed to the Pacific North-West as well as to other parts of the New World looking for new species of plants. The Royal Horticultural Society of London hoped to introduce new and exciting plants to its gardens.After Douglas's explorations in the New World, hundreds of new species became available. As a result flower beds and theme gardens with new exotic specimens and aboreta became fashionable. This information gives some perspective on the planning and development of the Ballarat Botanical Gardens.2 pages of print in columns. There is a black and white photograph of David Douglas halfway down the page on the lefthand side of p.1. On p.2 there is a black and white photograph of the Douglas Fir on the lefthand side of the page and lower down a photograph of Lupinus polyphyllus.none.john garner, doctor john garner, ballarat botanic gardens, friends of ballarat botanical gardens, david douglas, royal horticultural society, kew gardens, douglas fir, sitka spruce, radiata pine, john claudius loudon, joseph banks, john garner collection, gardens, ballarat -
