Explorers Garden - Monthly Guided Tour

24 Apr – 25 Sep 2025

Monthly Guided Tour

Scotland has produced some of the world’s most successful plant hunters and this truly unique Garden celebrates their contribution to the way our gardens look today.

Conceived as a Theatricum Botanicum, and built in conjunction with the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh in the late 1990s, the Explorers Garden offers stunning spaces for art performance including the Pagoda, the Pavilion and the Amphitheatre.  

Take a walk with one of the gardening team for a seasonal look at the Garden’s progress and what’s in bloom.

Last Thursday of every month from April through to September.
