    Garden History

Join us for a special viewing of our exhibition ‘Gardeners’ World at 50’ exploring the trends that have shaped the way we garden over the last 50 years . The tour will include a curator’s introduction to the exhibition and the opportunity to go behind the scenes at the RHS Lindley Library to view early books and artworks from the library collections and find out more about the wildlife in our gardens and how our attitude to pests and pollinators has changed over the course of recent centuries.
