Horticulture: Garden Tours

Join us for a trip around the Garden, Glasshouse and behind-the-scenes

We hope that you enjoy these windows into the Garden – even though the gates are closed, there is still absolutely loads going on.

Garden Highlights Tour

Join Head of Horticulture, Sally Petitt, on a tour of the seasonal highlights of the Garden. From the huge to the very small, she points out some beauties that you might miss even if you were in the Garden.

Glasshouse Tour

Glasshouse Supervisor, Alex Summers, takes us through the Glasshouse Range, showing some of the stunning, exotic blooms that are out at the moment, including a trip into the canopy of the Tropical House which is usually closed to the public except during the Festival of Plants.

Behind the Scenes

Sally takes us behind-the-scenes to explore the reserve glasshouses where many of our plants live before, and after, they make an appearance in the Garden.
