Sir James Justice (1698–1763) was a Scottish horticulturalist/gardener.
He reportedly had a passion for botanical experiments, which he pursued at the expense of his finances and family.
[1] His divorce and expulsion from the Fellowship in the Royal Society has been blamed on the expenses he put into greenhouses and soil mixtures.
He is nevertheless a noted figure in Scottish gardening with a claim to be the father of it.
