Physic Gardens of Edinburgh

Join speakers from The Palace of Holyroodhouse, Royal Botanic Gardens Edinburgh, and Edinburgh Zoo to explore the roots, shoots, and stories of three Physic Gardens growing in locations across the city of Edinburgh.

Find out how the seventeenth-century roots of Holyrood garden blossomed into the modern Royal Botanic Garden, and discover the practical and nutritional benefits of the garden at the Zoo.

As well as exploring the distinct histories, identities and purposes of each modern garden space, this event will also trace the theme of health and wellbeing common throughout the three gardens, and will include an opportunity for audience questions.
