Who were the people responsible fir collection and sending plants from one country to another? And why did they do it? Initially they were travelers with other purposes: traders, colonists, prlgrims and missionaries have all been important in providing new plants for English gardens. They sent back indigenous wild plants, or sometimes, as in tge cases of visitors to China and Japan, plants which have been cultivated and improved for hundreds of years. This worked, of course, in both directions: English gardens were making in the most unlikely place. Travelers did not always recognize an interesting plan on seen it - interesting, that is, to the collector at home. So in the 16th and 17th century attempts were made to collect on a most professional basis, either by patrons sending collections into the field, or by subscriptions to finace local enthusiasts in the most promised areas. By 1611 John Tradescant was traveling and collecting in France and other parts of Europe. Lately, Peter Collinson, a London merchant, who had seen the richness of the plant material setnding back by Tradescant, organized a sydicate to finance the amateur botanist John Bartam. Before long special colletors were being disspatched to all parts of the world by insitutions such as the Chelsea Physic Garden.
