Botanic Gardens, Regents Park, London
The Royal Botanic Society was a learned society founded in 1839 by James de Carle Sowerby under a royal charter to the Duke of Norfolk and others. Its purpose was to promote the study of botany in all its branches, and its applications. Soon after it was established, it leased the grounds within the Inner Circle in Regents Park, London, about 18 acres, for use as an experimental garden
