The Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh was established in 1670.
The Botanics captures the imagination of everyone who visits and is world renowned for its horticultural excellence. Over 70 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds provide a tranquil haven just one mile from the city centre.
The Victorian Palm Houses
RBGE's oldest glasshouse, the Tropical Palm House, was built in 1834 at a cost of £1,500. Some 28 years later the extension, or Temperate Palm House, was built by Robert Matheson with a Parliamentary grant of £6,000. The Temperate Palm House measures 15.24 m (50ft) to the top of the stonework - sandstone from a quarry at Bishopbriggs near Glasgow, with each glass dome 3.35 m (11ft) giving a total height of 21.95 m (72ft).
The Victorian Palm Houses
The radical design of the 1967 glasshouses was hailed as the most innovative since Paxton's Great Conservatory at Chatsworth, built in the 1830s (which was superseded at Chatsworth by a prototype for our Glasshouses here at the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh). The main house is 128 m (420 ft) long and 18.25 m (60 ft) wide, designed by George A. H. Pearce (1913-2005) assisted by J. Johnson of the then Ministry of Public Buildings and Works, Soctland at a cost of £263,000.
