He studied under his father and at the universities of Franeker Utrecht and Leiden also spending two years in France where he obtained an M.D. degree in Angers. Returning to Groningen in 1651 he joined the staff at the Rijkshogeschool Groningen which eventually became the University of Groningen. Here he taught for 24 years as professor of botany and chemistry. On his father's death he assumed management of the Hortus Botanicus Groninganus from 1658 to 1683. His botanist friends sent him seeds from the Dutch East- and West Indies Africa and the Americas. His daughter Hester died after eating Deadly Nightshade from the Garden. Munting subsequently developed a particular interest in the medicinal uses of plants.<br /><br />The present work Munting's best known was first published in Dutch as Naauwkeurige Beschryving Der Aardgewassen 1696. Illustrated were trees shrubs flowers and grasses of temperate zones with some tropical and subtropical plants that had been introduced to the Netherlands.<br /> Nissen BBI 1429; Hunt 404.
