Las colecciones están enfocadas en plantas de las regiones mediterráneas de todo el mundo, esta es una vegetación vinculada al clima mediterráneo que se caracteriza por un largo verano seco, de inviernos suaves y lluvias en la primavera y el otoño. Este clima sólo se encuentra sobre un 5% de la superficie de la tierra pero en 5 regiones del mundo en las cuales las plantas tuvieron una evolución adaptativa específica que con todo da paisajes bastante similares, por lo que las plantas se distribuyen agrupadas, según las cinco regiones mediterráneas del mundo.
Las sendas nos permiten acceder de zona en zona, comenzando por las Islas Canarias situadas a la entrada y subir al Mediterráneo occidental reconocible por el instituto botánico, que sobresale.
Del hemisferio Norte, la zona con una mayor representación es la Cuenca Mediterránea, siguiendo el camino de visita se accede hasta las costas de California de clima mediterráneo.
Después se encuentran las zonas mediterráneas del hemisferio Sur donde se visita la región mediterránea de Chile, el sur de África, y las dos regiones mediterráneas del sur de Australia (SE y S).

The collections are focused on plants from Mediterranean regions around the world, this is a vegetation linked to the Mediterranean climate that is characterized by a long dry summer, mild winters and rains in spring and autumn. This climate is only found on 5% of the earth's surface, but in 5 regions of the world in which the plants had a specific adaptive evolution that nevertheless gives quite similar landscapes, for which reason the plants are distributed grouped, according to the five Mediterranean regions of the world.
The paths allow us to access from zone to zone, starting with the Canary Islands located at the entrance and going up to the western Mediterranean recognizable by the botanical institute, which stands out.
From the Northern Hemisphere, the area with the greatest representation is the Mediterranean Basin. Following the visit path leads to the coast of California with a Mediterranean climate.
Then there are the Mediterranean areas of the Southern Hemisphere where you visit the Mediterranean region of Chile, southern Africa, and the two Mediterranean regions of southern Australia (SE and S).

"If John Walker had never done anything else, his work in creating hundreds if not thousands of new varieties of hibiscus would entitle him to the gratitude of the people of Hawaii." - John Walker obituary, 1928
The first half of the twentieth century marks the golden age for Hawai'i breeders like John Walker, who creates 2,500 new hybrids and sends cuttings from his personal collection around the world.
Pre-1950 Hawai'i hybrids, the theme of this section, are created by a large and diverse group of local breeders, from Matanai Kataka in Honolulu to Lucy Vrooman Cooper of Hau'ula's famed Cooper Ranch Inn.
Desired for their beauty and vigor, Hawaii hybrids are imported by botanical gardens and fellow breeders in Australia, Bermuda, Fiji, Panama, Sri Lanka, and the United States mainland.
John Walker's Hawaii legacy extends far beyond hibiscus hybrids. As the founder of Walker-Moody Construction Company in 1895, he builds many of O'ahu's most iconic
structures and public works, including Honolulu's original sidewalks, Honolulu Hale (City Hall), and the Kalãkaua Crypt at Mauna 'Ala, the Royal Mausoleum of Hawaii.
Born in Hiroshima, Matanai Kataoka is the first recorded Hawai'i breeder of non-Caucasian descent. Migrating from Japan in the 1890s, Kataoka works on a Kauai sugar plantation before moving to Honolulu and founding his own hibiscus and anthurium nursery.

May the Love, Peace, and Joy of Christmas be yours always.
Love came down on Christmas Day so many years ago and
brought the greatest happiness the world would ever know...
Peace came down on Christmas Day to fill the hearts of men
with all the sweet tranquility each Christmas brings again...
Joy came down on Christmas Day as angels came to earth
heralding the miracle of our Messiah's birth.

We walked through Hyde Park from Museum station, through the Botanic Garden to the Opera House, and then back via the State Library. About 10,000 steps, really enjoyable.
