Col W. Light's 1837 plan for Adelaide showed an area for a botanic garden and work began in 1855. The superintendent (George Francis) used Kew Gardens as his model. The garden still has a English character and, like Kew, has educational and ornamental displays. There is a good iron Palm House and a conservatory built to celebrate Australia's Bicentenary (1988).
