World Garden of Plants — Attraction in Sevenoaks

just only for the area where these gardens are located, they would deserve 5 stars. However I wasn't so impressed by the gardens...I found them a bit dry.

So we know when we see a plant we like, which one it is in the shop. 4.Shame you didn't have any eucalyptus for sale, as I wanted to buy at...

Absolutely stunning assortment of beautiful plants from across the globe. The garden is incredibly well maintained by its owner and curator Tom Hart Dyke who had exceptional brought together so many contrasting varieties into one location. Although we did not get too see him on the day, Tom himself normally attends the garden daily and, from previous interactions, is an enthusiastic and friendly source of information. His ability to landscape and arrange such a dense amount of botanical material in one location is honestly astounding. The garden itself could be a stand alone attraction without Lullingstone House or the Roman Villa near by, simply from its...
