#OTD The #Botanist John #Bartram wrote,
"[That] was the #Fatal night that destroyed the #Lime, #Citron & #Banana trees in #StAugustine."

Bernard's "Natural History of #Florida" also wrote about the #Freeze:

"A #Frost destroyed all the #Tropical productions of the country, except the #Oranges.

The #Spaniards called this a #Judgment on the place [becoming] the property of #Heretics - they had never experienced the like."

#December 29, 1704
#OTD Martha Daniel Logan, American #Botanist, is born.

After her #Husband died, Martha provided #Rare #Seeds & #Plants to the top #Botanists of her time & set up a #Seed exchange between the American #Colonies & #Britain.

She also wrote a #Gardening advice column & her #Gardener's #Calendar graced the back of #Almanacs for decades.

In 1761, John #Bartram wrote that Martha was, “an elderly #Widow #Lady who spares no pains or cost to oblige me. Her #Garden is her #Delight."
