Aburi Botanical Gardens
Aburi Botanical Gardens is a botanical garden in Aburi in Eastern region of South Ghana.
The garden occupies an area of 64.8 hectares. It was opened in March, 1890.〔Richard Kwame Debrah, (The Beautiful Aburi Botanic Garden of Ghana ), GhanaWeb, 4 June 2005〕 Before the garden was established, it was the site of a sanatorium built in 1875 for Gold Coast government officials. During the governorship of William Brandford-Griffith, a Basel missionary supervised clearing of land around the sanatorium to start the Botanic Department. In 1890 William Crowther, a student from the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, was appointed the garden's first curator.〔(Aburi Botanic Gardens )〕 The gardens played an important role in encouraging cocoa production in South Ghana, by supplying cheap cocoa seedlings and information about scientific farming methods.〔Kwamina B. Dickson, ''A Historical Geography of Ghana'', 1969, Cambridge University Press, p. 166. J. H. Frimpong-Ansah, ''The Vampire State in Africa: The Political Economy of Decline in Ghana'', 1992, Africa World Press, p. 123.〕 After ''Hevea Brasiliensis'' was sent to Aburi from Kew in 1893, the gardens also encouraged rubber production in Ghana.〔Kees Burger, Hidde P. Smit, ''The Natural Rubber Market: Review, Analysis, Policies and Outlook'', 1997, Woodhead Publishing, p. 213.〕
