Christian Friedrich Heinrich Wimmer (October 30, 1803 – March 12, 1868) was a German botanist and educator who was a native of Breslau.

From 1821 he studied philology and natural sciences at the University of Breslau, and after completion of studies, taught classes at Friedrichs gymnasium in Breslau. In 1835 he received the title of professor, and from 1863 served as a Schulrat (education official). He was author of several publications on Silesian flora, and specialized in the study of the willow genus Salix. With Johann Christian Carl Günther and Heinrich Emanuel Grabowski he distributed an exsiccata-like series of duplicate specimens called Schlesische Gewächse.[1][2] The plant genus Wimmeria within the family Celastraceae is named after him.[3]

In 1854–62 Wimmer published an edition on the ancient Greek naturalist Theophrastus, titled "Theophrasti Eresii Opera quae supersunt omnia".
