Rare facsimile of an unpublished manuscript, which gives in an elegant hand a complete inventory and a scale plan of the Hortus of the Leyden University. More than one thousand different species and varieties were present, a part of which as tub- and potplants. In 1594 the apothecary Cluyt was appointed as Clusius' help, who should yield all of his own plants for the gardens. Cluyt, who had moved from Delft to Leyden, carried out his task with great perseverance and energy. In September of the same year the entire Hortus was planted. The plant list the herbalist John Gerard in 1596 made of his own garden in Holborn (London) is according to Agnes Arber considered "as being the first complete catalogue ever published of the contents of a single garden." Hunger states in his biography of Clusius (note p. 218) that this inventory of the Leyden Hortus was made two years earlier.
