 Agency the early 1800s the Chief - General Thomas Stamford Raffles, who inhabit the Bogor Palace and has a voluminous absorption pull botany, are responsive credit developing pages Bogor Palace into a graceful garden. Shelter the service of botanists, W. Kent, who helped habit Kew Garden in London, Raffles turn a courtyard into a classic English - style garden. This is the beginning of the Bogor Botanical Gardens in its present form.
 Olivia Raffles Monument

 In 1814 Olivia Raffles ( wife of Governor - General Thomas Stamford Raffles ) died due to illness and was buried in Batavia. For preservation, the monument was established for him at the Bogor Botanical Gardens.

 The idea stems from the founding of the Botanical Gardens of Abner, a biologist who wrote a letter to the Governor - General GAGPh. van der Capellen. In the letter revealed his desire to ask for a parcel of land that will be the garden of useful plants, where teacher education, and collection of plants for the development of the other gardens.

 Prof. Karl Georg Caspar Reinwardt German is someone who moved to Holland and became a scientist in botany and chemistry. He was promoted to minister of agriculture, arts, and science in Java and its surroundings. He is interested in investigating a variety of plants used for treatment. He decided to gather all these plants in a botanical garden in the city of Bogor, which at that time called Buitenzorg ( from the Dutch language which means " do not have to worry " ). Reinwardt also a pioneer in the field of making herbarium. He became known as a founder Bogoriense Herbarium.

Stance begins by putting the first spade in the earth swing Pajajaran as a sign that the construction of plantation development, the implementation is led by Reinwardt himself, assisted by James Hooper and W. Kent ( of the famous Kew Gardens in Richmond, UK ).

 Approximately 47 hectares of land around the former presidential palace in Bogor and samida clear land for the first botanical garden. Reinwardt became its first director from 1817 until 1822. This opportunity is used to collect plants and seeds from other parts of the archipelago. With Bogor soon became the center of the development of agriculture and horticulture in Indonesia. At that time estimated to be about 900 live plants grown in the orchard.

 In 1822 Reinwardt returned to Holland and was replaced by Dr. Carl Ludwig Blume conduct an inventory of the collection of plants that grow in the garden. He also compiled a catalog of the first gardens were recorded as many as 912 species ( species ) of plants. The implementation of this plantation development has been postponed due to lack of funds but then again pioneered by Johannes Elias Teysmann ( 1831 ), an expert in the palace gardens Governor General Johannes van den Bosch. With the assistance of Karl Justus Hasskarl, he undertook the planting arrangements of plant collections by grouping according to the tribes ( families ).

 Teysmann later replaced by Dr.. Carel Christiaan Rudolph Herman Scheffer in 1867 became director, and continued later by prof. Dr. Melchior Treub.

 Establishment of the Bogor Botanical Gardens can be said to initiate the development of science in Indonesia. From here was born a few other institutions of science, such as the Bibliotheca Bogoriensis ( 1842 ), Herbarium Bogoriense ( 1844 ), Cibodas Botanical Garden ( 1860 ), Laboratory Treub ( 1884 ), and the Museum and Laboratory of Zoology ( 1894 ).

 At first this garden will only be used as an experimental garden for plantation crops that will be introduced to the Dutch East Indies ( now Indonesia ). But in its development is also used as a forum for research scientists of that era ( 1880 - 1905 ).

Teijsmann and Dr. Hasskarl ( era of the Governor - General Van den Bosch ), J. E. Teijsmann and Simon Binnendijk, Dr.. R. H. C. C. Scheffer ( 1867 ), Professor. Dr. Treub Melchior ( 1881 ), Dr. Christiaan Jacob Koningsberger ( 1904 ), Van den Hornett ( 1904 ), and Prof.. Ir. Koestono Setijowirjo ( 1949 ), which is the first Indonesian who served a leading international research institutions.

 At the time of the leadership figures that have been made regarding the activities catalog Bogor Botanical Gardens, a complete listing of the collection Cryptogamae plants, 25 species of gymnosperms, 51 species and 2200 species Monocotyledonae Dicotyledonae, business introduction of important economic crops in Indonesia, collecting plants useful for Indonesia ( 43 types, including vanilla, coconut oil, quinine, gutta percha, sugarcane, cassava, corn from America, ironwood from Palembang and Borneo ), and internal institutional development in the Botanical Gardens are:
