CHARLES DARWIN , born 1809 in Shrewsbury near Birmingham died 1882 in Down (Kent) DARWIN studied first medicine at the University of Edinburgh and subsequently theology at the University of Cambridge, but his grandfather’s work "Zoonomia or the laws of organic life " (1794/96) containing some initial ideas about the evolution of organisms and his friendship with the botanist J. S. HENSLOW from Cambridge influenced him a far more. From 1831 to 1836, DARWIN participated as a natural scientist in a journey around the world on board of the research ship ‘Beagle’ . The journey became a crucial experience for DARWIN and was the starting point of all of his later works. During this time, he made the first observations for his theory of selection. The study of marine fossils in the higher Andes and the characteristic flora and fauna of the Galapagos Archipelago impressed him particularly. He summarized the results of this journey in a preliminary report followed in 1860 by the detailed version The Voyage of the Beagle The German translation was published in 1875. Some years after his return to England, DARWIN moved to his country seat

BONN UNIVERSITY BOTANIC GARDEN home History and Size The Garden Greenhouses ... Opening Hours HISTORY AND SIZE The history of the Botanic Garden, one of the oldest and most traditional gardens north of the Alps, goes back more than 400 years. The existence of a castle and a simple garden here is first recorded in a pen and ink drawing dated 1578. In the 17th Century, one of the most splendid gardens of the time was laid out, including orangeries (the forerunners of greenhouses). In the 18th Century, the rococo-style Clemensruh Palace (Poppelsdorfer Schloss) was built (c. 1740-47). The garden as we know it dates from the foundation of the University in 1818, and its boundaries coincide closely with those of the Elector's park. Two beech trees from the old baroque garden still stand. The garden's founder and first director (1818-30) was Nees von Esenbeck. The total area is 6 ha (15 acres) of which greenhouses occupy 0.25 ha (about 0.6 acres). In addition we have a separate area in the Melb valley which is not open to the public. THE GARDEN Out-of-doors, the collections consist of the park-like

The Picos de Europa is a little-known but substantial mountain range. The northern reaches are subject to weather systems sweeping in from the Atlantic but the sheltered southeastern valley of Lebena, between the Picos proper and the Cordillera Cantabrica to the south, enjoys a warmer Mediterranean climate. Formed during Carboniferous and Devonian eras, the limestones, shales and conglomerates are the base for habitat diversity encompassing vast tracts of primaeval beech and oak forest, Mediterranean vegetation and high-altitude peat bogs, overtopped by jagged peaks and precipitous gorges. Probably the most significant factor in terms of the wildlife is the continuation of traditional agricultural systems. Flower-rich hay meadows and alpine pastures thrive and support a vast array of insect life and a rich vertebrate food-web.

var ref = document.referrer; var qStr = ( ref ) ? "?ref=" + escape( ref ) : ""; document.location.replace( "http://www.tropicalgardensofmaui.com/" + qStr ); Tropical Gardens of Maui is a 4-acre botanical garden and export plant nursery located in Iao Valley on the Island of Maui. Tropical Gardens of Maui is located on the windward side of the island at the entrance of historic Iao Valley. Planting began in 1987 on a treeless lot that was previously a cut flower farm. Sheltered between the valley walls and being at an elevation of approximately 800 feet has provided ideal conditions for the 4 acres of plants; as a result, the garden has grown rapidly. Our location has also provided us with our own unique micro climate that allows us to easily raise a widely diverse selection of plants ranging from Southwestern American Cactus to bizarre Miniature Palms from the rain forest of Borneo. The main reason for starting the garden was to create a showcase of tropical plants from all parts of the world, with hundreds of varieties of exotic palms, ginger's, orchids, and many other plants including native Hawaiian plants, many of which are rare or endangered. Flowering trees provide the canopy for the understory vegetation and also provide homes for the many orchids and other air plants that can be seen growing as they would in their native habitat. The collection of plants is always growing with new ones being introduced continuously. Sections of the garden are continually being replanted and improved.

79. Going Against Convention, Scientist Says Orchids Are Older Than They Look Thus orchids, which can be extremely complex, appeared to be the lateevolving ingenues of the plant world. A scientist at The New York Botanical Garden http://www.nybg.org/pr/orchid_age.html

For Immediate Release May 6, 2003 GOING AGAINST CONVENTION, SCIENTIST SAYS ORCHIDS ARE OLDER THAN THEY LOOK Like many great beauties, orchids are coy about their age. Scientist had long assumed that orchids were young in evolutionary terms. Most organisms start out simple and get gradually more complex over the course of evolution. Thus orchids, which can be extremely complex, appeared to be the late-evolving ingenues of the plant world. A scientist at The New York Botanical Garden, however, is challenging this view, using new molecular tools to ask a ladyslipper her age. The results have been surprising. "Orchids had been considered the apex of plant evolution, just as humans were thought of as being the most evolved animals," says orchid expert Ken Cameron, Ph.D., Assistant Curator at The New York Botanical Garden and Acting Director of The Lewis B. and Dorothy Cullman Program for Molecular Systematics Studies. "Just from looking at them, you would think this to be the case. Although the great majority of orchid species (mostly epiphytes living in trees) are probably of fairly recent origin, the orchid family as a whole is more ancient than traditionally believed, as exemplified by a handful of surviving relict species." By evaluating the geographical pattern of both primitive and advanced orchids, Dr. Cameron noticed an interesting pattern: The most advanced groups were geographically isolated, while the more primitive groups were spread across Africa, South America, and Australia. These three continents were once combined, and the presence of the same primitive orchids on all three suggests that orchids were there before the break-up of the continents.
