The Royal Tasmanian Botanical Gardens with 6,500 plant species, including 400 from Tasmania, covers 13.5 hectares and is near the central business district. The gardens were established in 1818 and contain historic plant collections and trees from the nineteenth century. A one-of-a-kind sub-Antarctic plant house contains plants from Macquarie Island. With cool fogs and mists, a climate-controlled environment replicates the cold and wet environment of the island. Another interesting feature is the hollow Arthur Wall which allows the interior of the wall to be heated to help grow exotic plants and fruit trees in cooler climates. This type of wall used to be common in Britain. The gardens also have a Japanese garden, an herb garden, a community food garden, a large conifer collection, and a Conservatory.
