Sir Joseph Banks was a very famous British plant collector, who accompanied James Cook on his first voyage from England to Oceania. The purpose of the trip for Banks was to record the plant and animal life they came across. He and his team collected examples whenever they went onto dry land. In 1769, Banks collected vast quantities of plants in the land now known as Australia. None of these plants had been recorded by Europeans before. Cook called the bay where the Endeavour had anchored Botany Bay.
Keeping plants alive during long land or sea voyages was an enormous challenge. Large numbers of seeds failed to grow after long sea voyages or trips across land between Asia and Europe. One plant explorer lost several years' work when his plants were mined with seawater.
The world of plant exploration was completely changed with Dr Nathaniel Ward's invention of a tightly sealed portable glass container. This invention, called the Wardian case, allowed plants to be transported on long journeys. In 1833, Ward shipped two cases of British plants to Sydney, Australia. All the plants survived the six-month journey. In 1835, the cases made a return trip with some Australian species that had never been successfully transported before. After eight months at sea, they arrived safely in London.
A British man called Robert Fortune was one of the earliest plant collectors to use Wardian cases. He made several trips to China between 1843 and 1859. At that time, there were restrictions on the movement of Europeans and so, in order to travel unnoticed, he developed his fluency in Chinese and dressed as a Chinese man, even shaving his head in the Chinese style. He experienced many adventures including huge thunderstorms in the Yellow Sea and pirates on the Yangtze River. Not only did Fortune introduce over 120 species of plants to Western gardens but he also shipped 20,000 tea plants from Shanghai to India, where a successful tea industry was established.

约瑟夫.班克斯爵士是一位非常著名的英国植物收藏家，他陪詹姆斯.库克从英国航行至大洋洲。对班克斯来说，此行的目的是记录他们所遇到的动植物生命状态。他和他的团队只要一去到那片干旱的土地，他们都会收集样本。1769年，班克斯在现今被称为澳大利亚的地方收集到了大量植物。这些植物以前都没被欧洲人记录过。库克把奋进号锚泊的地方称之为“波坦尼湾”。
在海陆旅程中使植物存活下来是一项巨大的挑战。经过漫长的海上航行和欧亚大陆之间的长途运输，大量种子无法生长。一位植物探险家的植物遭遇海水破坏后，白费了几年的工作。
一项密封便携玻璃容器的发明使之获得纳萨尼尔博士奖，使整个植物探险界发生了翻天覆地的变化。这项发明被称为沃德箱，可以长途运输植物。1833年，沃德把两箱植物运到澳大利亚悉尼。所有植物在六个月的运输中存活了下来。1835年，这两个沃德箱装载从未被成功运载过的澳大利亚植物品种返航。经过八个月的海上航行，成功抵达伦敦。
一个叫罗伯特.弗吐恩的英国人是最早使用沃德箱的植物收藏家。在1843到1859年间，他几次到达中国。那时，欧洲人的活动受到限制。为了使旅行不被发现，他学了一口流利的汉语，并装扮成中国人的样子，甚至把头也理成中国人的发型。他经历了许多冒险，包括黄海上的雷暴雨和长江上的海盗。弗吐恩不仅仅向西方花园引进了120多种植物，而且还把2万多棵茶树从上海运往印度，在那里成功建立了茶叶产业。
