    HISTORY OF THE UNITED STATES BOTANIC GARDEN 1816-1991 HISTORY OF THE UNITED STATES BOTANIC GARDEN 1816-1991 by Karen D. Solit PREPARED BY THE ARCHITECT OF THE CAPITOL UNDER THE DIRECTION OF THE JOINT COMMITTEE ON THE LIBRARY CONGRESS OF THE UNITED STATES WASHINGTON 1993 For sale by the U.S. Government Printing Office Superintendent of Documents, Congressional Sales Office, Washington, DC 20402 ISBN 0-16-040904-7 0 • io-i r : 1 b-aisV/ FOREWORD The Joint Committee on the Library is pleased to publish the written history of our Nation's Botanic Garden based on a manuscript by Karen D. Solit. The idea of a National Botanic Garden began as a vision of our Nation's founding fathers. After considerable debate in Congress, President James Monroe signed a bill, on May 8, 1820, providing for the use of five acres of land for a Botanic Garden on the Mall. The History of the United States Botanic Garden, complete with illustrations, traces the origins of the U.S. Botanic Garden from its conception to the present. The Joint Committee on the Library wants to express its sincere appreciation to Ms. Solit for her extensive research and to Mr. Stephen W. Stathis, Analyst in American National Government with the Library of Congress 7 Congressional Research Service, for the additional research he provided to this project. Today, the United States Botanic Garden has one of the largest annual attendances of any Botanic Garden in the country. The special flower shows, presenting seasonal plants in beautifully designed displays, are enjoyed by all who visit our Nation's Botanic Garden.
