Botanical History On This Day

1745 The English botanist John Bradby Blake [BRAD-bee BLAKE] is born. Though he lived a tragically short life - dying at just twelve days after his 28th birthday - John left behind an extraordinary legacy that bridges East and West through botanical art and discovery.

1877 William Rickatson Dykes [RICK-et-sun DYKES] is born in Bayswater, London. Though he began his career as a classics teacher at Charterhouse School, it was his passion for irises that would ultimately define his legacy.

1884 Harry Ferguson is born near Dromara [droh-MAR-ah] in County Down, Ireland. While we often think of gardening in terms of hand tools and intimate connections with the soil, Ferguson revolutionized how we cultivate the earth on a grand scale.
