Preparing the Palm House plants

Short film

Before the Palm House restoration work could begin, hundreds of plants had to be carefully removed for safekeeping and tended by our Horticulturists in other Glasshouses on-site.

Now, as the renovation work in the Palm Houses nears completion, it’s time to prepare our plants for the journey back home.

Find out more from our Horticulturists Kevin and Marc and learn about two of the key plants we will be showcasing once the Palm Houses reopen.
