:''This article refers to a botanic gardens in Australia. For the Wilson Botanical Gardens in Costa Rica, see Las Cruces Biological Station.'' Wilson Botanic Park is a botanic garden located on Princes Highway in Berwick in Victoria, Australia. ==History== The 100 acre (39 hectare) site was originally a blue metal quarry which was operated between 1859 and 1976 by the Wilson family who subsequently donated the land to the community. During early excavations, fossilised forest remnants were uncovered. Later studies found that these fossils indicated that the site was covered with tropical forest 22 million years old and include the earliest known Eucalyptus fossils.〔 The City of Casey started redevelopment of the site into a botanic garden in 1988, and the site was officially opened by the Governor General four years later in 1992. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Wilson Botanic Park」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
