Description

Planting a City in the Tropical Andes explores the fascinating intersection of botany, urban development and social history in Bogota during the pivotal period from 1880 to 1920. This Routledge Research on Gardens in History volume examines how plants shaped the city's growth and how people engaged with green spaces during a transformative era in Colombian history. The book traces the relationship between botanical knowledge, landscape design and urban planning in the tropical Andes, revealing how gardens and plants became central to Bogota's modernisation. Drawing on archival research and historical analysis, the work illuminates the social dimensions of horticulture and environmental change in a rapidly developing Latin American city. Essential reading for historians, urban planners, botanists and anyone interested in how natural and human systems intertwine in city building.
