ABSTRACT THE Royal Botanic Garden, Calcutta, situated on the bank of the River Hoogly only a few miles from Calcutta at Sibpur, offers a remarkable parallel to the Royal Botanic Gardens,
Kew, which is situated on the bank of the Thames and is only a few miles from London. Both the gardens are of high scientific interest as well as of great aesthetic beauty. Both of them
serve as a source of inspiration, education and research for their many visitors. To quote Sir Arthur Hill's words: “May they find in them both spiritual rest and refreshment and also
that tree whose leaves were for the healing of nations”. Access through your institution Buy or subscribe This is a preview of subscription content, access via your institution ACCESS
