Early life
Bartram was born in colonial Darby, Pennsylvania, near Philadelphia, on March 23, 1699. He regarded himself as a simple farmer, with no formal education beyond the local school. He had a lifelong fascination with medicine and medicinal plants, as well as reading extensively. He began his botanical life by devoting a small portion of his farm to growing plants that he found interesting. He later connected with European botanists and gardeners interested in North American plants and turned his hobby into a burgeoning success.
