- Events
See the snowdrops at the historic botanical gardens and enjoy a walk through nature at the charming Chelsea Physic Garden, usually closed during winter but open especially for the Snowdrop Days. Laid out in the 17th century, the gardens were initially intended as a place to grow medicinal plants, its riverside location giving rise to a mild microclimate which allows non-native species to flourish. You're welcome to wander on your own through the charming collection of flowers and plants from across the globe. But opt for a guided tour and you can tap into a rich vein of history and some green fingered anecdotes. The three and a half acre site on the banks of the Thames is a wonderful spot for a winter walk, open from 4th to 12th February 2012.About Chelsea Physic Garden
The largest fruiting olive tree in Britain and the world's northern-most outdoor grapefruit tree call the historic Chelsea Physic Gardens home. Hidden behind towering brick walls, protected from the city's sounds and harsh breezes, the most idyllic collection of plants flourish in a unique, carefully created microclimate.
