Our Winter Garden is ablaze with colour from early December and is continually changing throughout the Winter months. Ornamental trees, striking-coloured stems, fragrant shrubs and beautiful bulbs, combine to create a Winter wonderland, even on the dullest of days.

Planted in 1979, it was the first winter garden to be created at a botanic garden in the UK and remains at the forefront of winter garden planting, demonstrating a wide a variety of plants to give as much winter interest as possible.

Open every day from 10am and is at its best December – late March.
