WALLS OF THE ROTUNDA 
On the walls of the Rotunda will be found a framed set of 
herbaceous plants, each frame containing a family. They are 
arranged in their natural order, beginning on the west face of the 
northwest corner and passing southward. This collection serves 
to illustrate the grouping of plants according to their botanical 
characters. 
On the floor of the north transept are three cases, two of 
lichens and one of mosses, each containing sufficient species to 
fairly represent the genera of these classes of plants. 
On the floor of the south transept is a case of replicas of 
tropical fruits, accompanied in many instances by products gained 
from the different species.
