In 2026, our Botanical Garden embarks on a remarkable journey through time. Plant Odyssey will present the intricate history of plant evolution, from the earliest forms of life to the rich diversity of species we see today. The theme draws on the fascinating evolution of plant life, which has shaped our planet for billions of years. Join us on a journey from non-flowering plants to the very first blossoms—and far beyond…You can look forward to both popular returning exhibitions and exciting brand-new events. We hope you will enjoy the new season with us to the fullest. |
