  • The Trust looks after around 35 major gardens and designed landscapes and over 30 smaller gardens. Almost every style of Scottish garden history is represented - from late medieval to modern creations in older settings.
  • With more than 283 hectares under intensive cultivation, supporting over 13,500 different to    taxa (species and cuiltivars) of plants, our gardens are internationally renowned for their plant collections. Geographical and climatic diversity, such as the Gulf Stream's effect on west coast gardens, provide conditions for the growth of remarkable, and often unique, collections.
  • Our gardens play host to events, lectures, conferences, musical performances and much more throughout the year, offering many ways to enjoy these gems and celebrate Scotland's garden heritage.
