Set in the heart of London, the Chelsea Physic Garden is well known for its extraordinary range of medicinal, useful and edible plants. As the capital’s oldest botanic garden it holds some 5,000 plants telling the story of humankind’s relationship with the plant kingdom – most recently, a new Garden of Edible and Useful Plants was unveiled.
Free entry for members (main cardholder) applies Tues–Weds when open, exc. RHS Chelsea Flower Show Week.
