Due to the garden’s dry, sheltered microclimate, many tender, Mediterranean and subtropical plants grow here unprotected all year round. There’s an impressive collection of outdoor cacti and succulents, including huge spiky agaves, flowering aloes and prickly pears (Opuntia). Sun-loving herbs, giant echiums and puyas, vibrant tender bedding plants and mature palm trees thrive here, as do many colourful South African treasures, Australian eucalyptus, bottlebrushes, tree ferns, and much more. Always check the garden’s website or call direct before visiting for up-to-date opening times, other ticket price options, and any one-off restrictions which may apply. Always take your 2-for-1 Gardens card with you. If you’ve booked your tickets under the 2-for-1 Gardens offer, show your card on the day to validate the booking. Please don’t make multiple bookings or share your 2-for-1 Gardens card – card misuse will invalidate your discount claim.Check before you travel
