What is difference between botanical garden and herbarium?

A herbarium is like a library of preserved plants. It contains mostly pressed, dried specimens of plants, but also pickled plants and plant parts. A herbarium collects these specimens to so that botanists can study plant species and morphology. Pressed plant specimens that are cared for properly can survive for hundreds of years, so they are an excellent reference source. A botanical garden is similar because it acts as a collection for reference to study plants, but they are living in a garden. Botanical gardens are usually open to the public to enjoy the collection, whereas a herbarium is usually only open to people who need to work with the specimens or see them for reference. Many botanical gardens have a corresponding herbarium.
