Arthur Henry Reginald Buller was born at Birmingham on 19 August 1874. As a young boy he was a weekly boarder at a preparatory’school at Moseley near his home, but at this age he suffered greatly from asthma whenever he was taken to the seaside or the country. Later he went to Queen’s College, Taunton, a methodist school, where he acquired an interest in natural history and a love of the countryside. At the age of eighteen he entered Mason College, Birmingham (now the University of Birmingham), studying Botany under Professor Hillhouse, and obtained the B.Sc. degree of London University in 1896 and the award of the Heslop Gold Medal from Mason College. In 1897 he became an Associate of the College. In October 1897 he went to Leipzig to study under the stimulating influence of Wilhelm Pfeffer, a great plant physiologist, and while there he was awarded an 1851 Exhibition scholarship.
