The seal of the New York Botanical Garden features a circular emblem with a palm tree at the top, flanked by a scholar in academic robes holding a book on the left and a gardener with a shovel on the right. The central shield is divided into four quadrants containing a flower, a book, a plant, and a gear. The emblem is surrounded by the text "THE NEW YORK BOTANICAL GARDEN 1891" and the motto "PRO SCIENTIA POPULIQUE SALUTE" For the sake of knowledge and the health of the people. The entire seal is framed by laurel branches.
