The Hortus botanicus Leiden is the oldest botanical garden in the Netherlands. Established in 1590 and expanded in the centuries that followed, the Hortus is the green heart of Leiden. Here Carolus Clusius cultivated the first large tulip collections in Europe, and Philipp Franz von Siebold introduced about 700 previously unknown plants from Japan and China. Researchers from around the world come here to conduct research on the Hortus' renowned collection.
This flower is one from the Hortus' collection.
