Tuesday 9 May, 10:00am - 3:00pm

In our exclusive Nursery Experience you will be taken on a tour of the Hyde Park plant nursery, learning about its history, the sustainable building and practices that help the team grow over 1,400 varieties of plants. In a small group with plenty of opportunities to ask questions, this will be a fascinating insight into the 500,000 plants that are sent out from here to six of the Royal Parks each year.

  • You'll learn about the different ways the plants can be grown here, participating in masterclasses in propagation and seed planting with the Nursery staff.
  • We will then break for a tasty lunch before creating our own hanging baskets similar to those hung in the Royal Parks to take home.
