Sir Joseph Banks 1743-1820
Joseph Banks was an English scientist who studied plants. He became
famous when he took part in Captain Cook's first voyage to Brazil,
Tahiti, New Zealand and Australia. He was President of the Royal
Society for 41 years, and advised King
George III on how to set up the Royal Gardens at Kew. He introduced the eucalyptus,
acacia and the banksia, which was named after him. Altogether, around 80 species
of plants are named after him in some way.
Banksia
David Douglas 1799-1834
David Douglas was a Scottish botanist who worked at the Glasgow
Botanical Gardens and the Royal Horticultural Society in London. He took
part in three trips from England to North America. He introduced the
Douglas fir in 1827, as well as several other pines, fir trees, the lupin and
the flowering currant. Douglas died on an expedition to Hawaii while
climbing a mountain called Mauna Kea.

Jeanne Baret 1740 - 1807
Jeanne Baret was a French woman who accompanied her partner, the
botanist Philbert Commerson, on an expedition to South America, Tahiti
and Mauritius. She was the first woman to sail around the world. Women
were not allowed on board ships at
that time so she had to disguise herself as a man to join the expedition. She and
Commerson introduced the bougainvillea to Europe, as well as around 70 other
plants. Only one, the solanum baretiae, was named after her.

Tom Hart Dyke 1976 - Present
Tom Hart Dyke is an English horticulturalist and plant hunter. He is the
designer of the World Garden at Lullingstone Castle. The World Garden
contains around 8000 species of plants, many collected by Hart Dyke
himself. Tom Hart Dyke was kidnapped on an expedition to collect a rare
orchid in South America. He was held captive for nine months with his
friend, Paul Winder. When he was released, he returned home and
created his World Garden. He still hunts rare plants today.
