Do you capitalize the word botanical?

It depends on the context! Here's how to decide:

* As an adjective: "Botanical" is generally lowercase when used as an adjective describing something. For example: "The museum has a beautiful botanical garden."

* As a noun: When "botanical" is used as a noun referring to the study of plants, it is capitalized. For example: "She studied botany in college."

* As part of a proper noun: If "botanical" is part of a proper noun, it should be capitalized. For example: "The Botanical Garden of New York."

Examples:

* Lowercase: botanical gardens, botanical specimens, botanical illustrations

* Capitalized: The Botanical Society of America, the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew
