Abstract
MANY of the readers of NATURE will be aware that the Physic Garden at Chelsea has for some time past been undergoing numerous alterations and improvements in order to enable it once more to take up its old position as a centre of botanical instruction and research. New laboratories and plant-houses have been erected, and on Friday, July 25, these were opened by Earl Cadogan, K.G., who expressed the hope that a long career of usefulness now lay before them. Mr. Hayes-Fisher, M.P., who presided on the occasion of the ceremony and who has throughout the reorganisation taken a most active part in the matter, gave a sketch of the history of the Garden and an outline of the purposes to which it is henceforth to be devoted.
