The Sloane Herbarium

The Sloane Herbarium is a carefully curated collection of preserved plant specimens, primarily stored as dried and pressed samples. Named after Sir Hans Sloane, it serves as a valuable resource for scientific research, education, and conservation. The herbarium provides detailed records of plant diversity, helping botanists study plant characteristics, track changes over time, and identify species. It plays an important role in understanding ecosystems, supporting biodiversity efforts, and advancing botanical knowledge. The collection is maintained with attention to preservation and accuracy, making it a cornerstone for botanical science.
