The Gardens' Margaret Flockton Award is an international award for excellence in scientific botanical illustration.
Every year, illustrators from around the world submit scientifically accurate drawings that accompany the published taxonomic description of a plant, clearly highlighting all of the distinctive features of the species. Original taxonomic illustrations are highly detailed black and white drawings primarily undertaken in pen and ink, pencil or digitally rendered.
The award also commemorates and celebrates the contributions of Margaret Flockton (1861 - 1953), the first botanical illustrator at the Royal Botanic Garden Sydney.
Thank you to the Maple-Brown Family and the Foundation & Friends of the Botanic Gardens for their generous sponsorship of the award.
