The Garden covers an area of 64.8 hectares (160 acres) but only 12.2 hectares (3 acres) have been developed in to a formal garden with the remaining 52.6 hectares forming the Botanical reserve.

Function/Role

Aburi Botanic Garden is among the 1600 botanic gardens worldwide, leading the fight to save plant diversity as well as creating an understanding and awareness for the promotion of methods of conservation and development of plant resources. The Garden’s main activities include:

* Scientific research
* Horticultural training
* Growing endangered plants
* Introducing rare plants into nature
* Managing natural reserves
* Environmental education

History

As far back as 1842, the select committee of the House of Commons in London recommended the establishment of a model farm or botanic garden in the then Gold Coast. Although the advantages of such an institution were again pointed out in evidence before the committee in 1865 it was not until March 1890 when a botanic garden was officially opened at Aburi in the Akwapim hills.

Prior to the establishment of the garden, the Gold Coast Government had built a sanatorium at the site for convalescing Government officials in 1875. In 1889, during the Governorship of his Excellency, Sir W. Brandford-Griffith, K.G.M.G., a few hectares of land was cleared in the vicinity of the sanatorium to begin the Botanical Department. The clearing was under the supervision of a German carpenter serving with the Basel Mission. In 1890, Mr. William Crowther, a student from the Royal Botanic Garden, Kew, arrived in the Gold Coast as the first Curator of the Botanic Garden. By 1908, 64.8 hectares of land had been cultivated and plots for selected economic plants, botanical specimens and decorative plants had been established.

At the time of its establishment, the Garden had the following as its main objectives:

a) The experimenting of both economic and decorative plants from other tropical and sub-tropical countries with a view to finding out those which could thrive under local conditions.
b) The exhaustive exploration of the agricultural resources of the country with a view to finding suitable economic plants for European markets
c) The teaching of scientific methods of agriculture

In 1895, William Crowther died of malaria and was succeeded by Mr. G.H.Humphries also from Kew Gardens. In 1899, Mr. W.H.Johnson took over the Curatorship.

Development

The greater part of the present garden was developed by Curator W.Crowther and W.H.Johnson, during whose time the Garden assumed much of its present form. Mr. Johnson later became the first Director of Agriculture. His intention was to turn Aburi into an Agricultural station.

Aburi, however, later proved unsuitable as an Agricultural station due to:

a) Poor and rocky soil
b) A damp climate
c) Lack of space for expansion

The research branch of the Agricultural Secretariat was therefore moved to Accra in 1922. In 1928, it was finally decided to abandon all agricultural experiments on the station and to convert it into a “purely” Botanic Garden. The work was under the management of Mr. G.H.Eady who had previously been in charge of the station. Several minor alterations were quickly made and more decorative plants were introduced.

Between 1939 and 1953 several departments sojourned in the Garden. Some of these were the:

a) Achimota Kindergarten (evacuated during the war)
b) Soil and Land-use Survey Department
c) Political Department and District Commissioner’s Office.

Word on the street is “It’s a great time for [kitchen] remodeling – if you have the money,” at least according to a recent The Arizona Republic new article. While that logic may go against the grain of everything that’s happening in the economy right now, it has some merit to it. And even homeowners who don’t have the cash saved up to update their kitchen with new kitchen cabinets and other remodeling features can take advantage of all-time low rates on home improvement loans.

So why now of all times, in the midst of a recession, would experts contend that the stars are aligned for remodeling the home, in particular the kitchen? The newspaper article points out several compelling reasons.

1. First and foremost, the recession is fueling never-before seen price wars. Contractors and retailers alike are slashing their prices in an effort to stay competitive in a slow market. This competition is good news for kitchen remodelers who want custom-built cabinets as well as those who are satisfied settling for assembled and ready-to-assemble kitchen cabinetry from their local home improvement supercenter. Indeed, there are kitchen cabinet deals to be had around every corner. “It’s the perfect time because (remodelers) will negotiate with you, and they will listen to you,” one newspaper source pointed out.

2. If a homeowner is planning to remain in his or her home for a while, the cost savings realized now on new kitchen cabinets can turn into substantial profits down the road. Once the economy recovers and real estate starts selling again, savvy homeowners can leverage their remodeled kitchens into higher asking prices. After all, the kitchen is one of the main selling points in any home.

3. “During the most recent housing boom, when local contractors were swamped, projects often came with longer time frames and higher bills,” The Arizona Republic article points out. According to data from the U.S. Census Bureau and the Department of Housing and Urban Development, new home sales dropped to the lowest rate on record in December 2008. As a result, kitchen cabinet contractors and kitchen cabinet manufacturers are not only slashing their prices; they’re also getting those cabinets installed much more quickly. How much faster? “For an average kitchen remodel, where it probably took close to three months before, it can be done in half that time,” one expert estimates.

4. If you’re a homeowner who’s looking to turn a profit on home foreclosures and short sales, there’s no time like the present to get those houses up to and above par. “Because you can get real estate at essentially bargain-basement prices [right now], it makes it much more attractive to put money into that home.” And when the goal is securing the highest possible return on investment, new kitchen cabinets are an excellent place to start.

Assembled and pre-assembled kitchen cabinets allow homeowners to get started on their kitchen remodels more quickly and to finish the project at lightning speed. By eliminating manufacturing and home assembly wait times, homeowners can see their kitchen remodeling transformations come to life in near no time.

Planting a garden is a classic rite of spring time. However, the best time for garden planting really depends on a number of factors. This include location, vegetables or flowers being planted and annual weather conditions. By taking all these into consideration, you can plant your garden at just the right time, giving you a great start to the growing season.

Instructions




1

Find out what zone you live in, according to the USDA plant hardiness map. This map, available online and in most garden centers, publications and even on the back of seed packets, details safe planting dates for different areas of the country based on weather and climate. This ensures that you won’t plant your seeds just to see your seedlings succumb to a late cold snap later in the season.

2

Consider the type of plant you plan on putting in your garden. Plant annual flowers once the danger of frost has passed for your area. Refer to instructions online, at garden centers, or those that come with your plant when planting perennial flowers, shrubs and trees. In most cases, these plants perform best when planted in the spring or fall, depending on location. Choose planting times for vegetables based on whether they are cool-season or warm-season crops. Cool-season vegetables withstand colder temperatures, as their name implies. They work well in fall or winter gardens in warmer climates. Warm-season vegetables need hot summer weather to thrive.

3

Find a day you can spend planting your garden. Rushing through the planting increases the risk of forgetting to do something in the way of preparation. It also makes gardening just another chore instead of something enjoyable. Pick a time when the ground is moist but not wet. This makes soil workable without creating a muddy mess and compacting the garden soil.

Tips & Warnings

Prepare the soil by tilling and adding soil amendments in the early spring. Do this at a different time than the actual planting. It is too much work for most people to accomplish in one day.

Researches have proved that only 12% of the total adult population dislikes cooking at home. This means that over 50% enjoy fussing at the stove – many of them enjoy the activity and others see it as a necessary task. Over 58% watch food programs on TV. They read the food section of newspapers and magazines and visit food websites. Given this, we can fairly say that media is a great influence not only in how homes prepare their food but also on how homeowners purchase home decor and decorate the kitchen.

According to studies, the average household’s kitchen is primarily influenced by friends and family. But food programs come in second. Viewers watch food TV shows because they want to learn new recipes. But given the fancy kitchen equipment and the convenience that these kitchenware offer, people no longer just watch cooking shows like Master Chef merely for cooking techniques but also to get the latest scoop in lifestyle homewares.

Expectedly, because men and women who love to cook also enjoy decorating the kitchen, high-end brands in kitchen homeware use these top-rating cooking shows to advertise their products. Even celebrities like Jamie Oliver, Donna Hay, and Maggie Beer who already have kitchen branded products take advantage of the high ratings of cooking shows. Now, people do not just watch food programs to explore new recipes, they do so as well to seek inspiration on how to decorate their kitchen.

The “cooking show phenomenon” has made everyone believe that in order to make good food, it is not enough that he has the right ingredients and knows the step-by-step cooking techniques, people have developed the belief that in order to cook great recipes, they need to have the right and the latest kitchen equipment, visually enticing kitchen interior, and a kitchen space conducive to cooking. In short, viewers want their kitchen to look as pleasant and as functional like their favorite food programs.
