Bookings essential for walks and talks – secure your spot and immerse yourself in the beauty and knowledge our gardens have to offer.

This year’s theme, "Guardians of the Green", shines a spotlight on the vital role our gardens play in protecting threatened species and educating future generations. Think of it as a zoo – but for plants!

Come and meet our ‘Big 5 Plants’ – standout species with incredible conservation stories. Discover how our garden is part of a global network fighting extinction and why botanic gardens are crucial in the battle against biodiversity loss.

Let’s grow awareness, spark curiosity, and inspire action – because protecting plants means protecting our future.
