The Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh has been cultivating knowledge and curiosity since 1670, when it began as a physic garden. Today, it’s a world-leading centre for plant science, conservation, and education, and a place of beauty, discovery and inspiration.
Our four Gardens in Edinburgh, Dawyck, Logan and Benmore each offer something unique. Explore collections from China, New Guinea and Southeast Asia in the heart of Edinburgh. Wander among majestic conifers and rhododendrons at Benmore, discover vivid azaleas and towering tree species at Dawyck, or lose yourself in the lush, exotic plantings of Logan, often described as Scotland’s most tropical garden.
Wherever you visit, you’ll find a living collection shaped by science, driven by conservation, and open to all who are curious about the world of plants.
