Founded in 1910 in Tulse Hill, South London, the SLBI cares for an herbarium of both foreign and British plants. It has a beautiful botanical garden and an extensive library of botanical literature.
Many of the plants grown in the garden are of medicinal interest. They were used by apothecaries to cure different ills in the past. Others contain chemicals that were used for dyeing cloth or for food preparation.

John Innes Park, Merton Park
South West London
SLBI visit to the park, July 2009
The Bandstand
The bandstand was designed by architect John Sydney Brocklesby (1874-1955) and erected in 1909 prior to the opening of John Innes Park. In 1904, following the death of John Innes and his architect Henry Goodall Quartermain, Brocklesby became the main architect for the Merton Park Estate Company. He and his new wife settled in Merton Park and he designed many houses in the “Arts and Crafts” style: the bandstand is consistent with that style. It is still used for musical and other events, including the John Innes Society’s annual midsummer “Music in the Park”.
Further information about this park, John Innes and the South London Botanical Institute can be found here:

Another English tradition, beach huts that can be hired during the summer season. However, this stretch of coastline has a huge surfing community and some of these huts are 'surf shacks' that include bunk beds.

Scilla siberica (Family: Hyacinthaceae)
Also known as "wood squill"
Location: South London Botanical Institute garden, London, England
Date: 25 March 2010
Event: SLBI Centenary Mosaic unveiling
2010 is the South London Botanical Institute Centenary Year - please see the What's On section for special events celebrating this historic occasion:
The genus Scilla (Family Liliaceae) is a group of early spring perennials from Europe, Africa, and Asia with more than 100 species, of which several are grown as ornamentals. The bright blue flowers of Siberian squill (Scilla siberica) are one of the first of the spring-flowering bulbs to brighten up the landscape in early spring. Despite the name, it is not from Siberia, but from other areas of Russia and Eurasia.
S. siberica has nodding flowers of intense royal blue produced on arching stalks up to 6 inches long. The narrow, grass-like, dark green leaves emerge from the ground in early spring and are soon followed by the flowers. One or more flower stalks are produced from the center of the rosette of foliage. Each flower stalk supports a single flower or a raceme of 2-3 flowers. The individual flowers are up to an inch across, with 6 blue "petals" (technically really tepals) with a single dark blue vein running down the middle and blue anthers. The bloom period is about 2 to 3 weeks long, and the flowers have a pleasant floral fragrance. They are also attractive to bees and other pollinating insects.
