Glasgow Botanic Gardens. Pic: Glasgow City Archives The Glasgow Botanic Gardens represent more than 200 years of flourishing flora at the heart of the city. The famous landmark was founded on March 24, 1817, by Thomas Hopkirk, a distinguished Glasgow botanist. Hopkirk donated his own collection to form the basis of the gardens with the original site located at the Sandyford side of Sauchiehall Street. Owned and run by the Royal Botanical Institution of Glasgow, the Gardens have shared a close relationship with the University of Glasgow since their foundation, providing plant supplies for University classes.
