Of particular importance were the Cesalpino, Targion Torzetti and Webb collections; the last having around 80,000 plants was added to the collection in the midnineteenth century.
Also in the nineteenth century precious plant collections such as the tropical herbarium were added, sufficient to fill twelve large rooms of the Botanic Institute of the University: the present collection consists of around four million examples.
Only one large room is open to the public, in which are exhibited various mixed examples: vegetable samples, plant models, old herbariums and botanical manuscripts.
Of note also are the superb wax models by Calamai and Tortori (early nineteenth century) and a spendid painted herbarium manuscript of the end of the fifteenth century.
