History Named for German Botanist Hans Burgeff (1883-1976), then Professor of Botany at Wurzburg University.



In 1928 Burgeff completed research at Buitenzorg (Bogor) Botanic Gardens, Java, before pointing Eric Holttum, then Director of Singapore Botanic Gardens, to Lewis Knudsen’s asymbiotic culture of orchid seedlings. This would supply the basis of raising countless seedlings produced by SBG’s Orchid Hybridisation Programme, which continues to the present day. (Emrys Chew, PhD)
