Get one free entry with one full-paying adult, with your Gardeners’ World Magazine 2-for-1 entry card. Valid at 416 gardens.

Due to its dry, sheltered microclimate, tender, Mediterranean and subtropical plants grow unprotected outdoors all year round. There’s an impressive collection of 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.

Many gardens have a warm microclimate, but this one claims to be Britain’s hottest garden. The average temperature at Ventnor Botanic Garden on the Isle of Wight is about five degrees higher than the rest of the UK. Many unusual and tender plants from around the world thrive here – there were even 272 different plants in bloom on New Year’s Day 2020. August stars include the Chilean lantern tree, dripping with exotic crimson flowers, fluffy white myrtle blooms and blue globes of agapanthus swaying gently in the sea breeze.
