Meet Kit, the kitsune, a magical Japanese fox with just one tail.
In Japanese folklore, kitsunes can grow up to nine tails, with each new tail bringing greater wisdom and magical powers. But growing tails takes hundreds of years, and Kit simply can't wait!
Determined to speed things up, Kit has travelled to the Botanics in search of powerful plant magic. Join this curious fox on an enchanting adventure through the Garden, gathering magical knowledge to help grow more tails.
Follow the trail, solve the clues, and uncover fascinating stories about plants from around the world. Along the way, you'll discover myths, legends, and hidden connections between people, animals and plants across different cultures.
Can you help Kit unlock the magic needed to grow more tails?
