About the event

Look closely at the different flower forms and the way individual plants are trained for display. The exhibition continues a horticultural tradition associated with the imperial garden, and can be enjoyed as part of a wider garden walk. The special opening calendar matters: the garden stays open every day during the exhibition, including Mondays.
