The Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh is a world-leading botanic garden and is home to a diverse and spectacular Living Collection of plants. It was established in 1670 when Andrew Balfour and Robert Sibbald created a physic garden near Holyrood to grow and study medicinal plants. Over 350 years later the garden is a world-renowned plant science and research institution with connections across the globe, committed to explore, explain and conserve plants for a better future.

Charlotte Cowan Pearson was born in Edinburgh on the 24th July 1837, five weeks after Queen Victoria ascended the British throne; she died in the same city on the 6th March 1917 and is buried in the city’s Dean Cemetery. Very little is known of Charlotte’s life but it is known that she was admitted as a lady member of the Botanical Society of Edinburgh (now Botanical Society of Scotland) in 1894 and that she was an enthusiastic botanical artist. An album of Charlotte’s beautiful botanical paintings of British plants, made in a variety of Scottish and Yorkshire locations, is held in the Library of the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh and pays witness to her talents as an artist.
