Good. Carl Ferdinand Heinrich von Ludwig (1784-1847) "acquired about three acres of waste land in Kloof Road, in the present Tamboers Kloof, which over the years he developed into a most noteworthy botanic garden. In addition to useful fruit trees, vegetables and crop plants, he introduced large numbers of ornamental trees, shrubs, bulbs and seeds from Europe, America and Australia. . Indigenous plants, many acquired from Ecklon and Zeyher, were a feature of the garden and William Harvey records with appreciation that these were freely made available to him for study. Known as Ludwig's-burg Garden, it was highly spoken of by visiting scientists (e.g. Charles Bunbury in 1838 and J.D. Hooker in 1843) and was sketched in its early stage of development in 1834 by Ludwig's friend, Sir John Herschel . " - Gunn & Codd: Botanical Exploration of Southern Africa, pp. 234-5.
