Biographical History

Landcape architect John Claudius Loudon was born on his family's farm in Scotland, and studied chemistry, botany, and agriculture at the University of Edinburgh. He began working as a landscape planner in Scotland and England, published numerous influential articles, and founded and edited several periodicals; about this time he was permanently weakened by rheumatic fever. He developed a style he termed Gardenesque, designed to be both aesthetic and instructive, which led to the development of the arboretum. His diverse and influential writings include horticulture, farming, greenhouses, architecture, and pioneering works on city planning. He helped popularize the term landscape architect, and influenced Victorian tastes in gardens and architecture.
