University of Bristol Botanic Garden
University of Bristol Botanic Garden, Botanical garden in Stoke Bishop, Bristol, United Kingdom.
The University of Bristol Botanic Garden is a botanical garden with plant collections from different climates, including Victorian glasshouses housing tropical and subtropical species. The site spreads across several themed areas where visitors can discover plants from around the world.
The garden received its Grade II protected status in 1999 for architectural importance. The current site was established in 2005 when the garden relocated to The Holmes in Stoke Bishop.
The garden functions as an educational center where students and researchers study plant biology, evolution, and conservation through living plant specimens.
The garden is easy to explore on foot, with well-maintained paths running between different areas and the glasshouses. Visitors should wear comfortable shoes and bring layered clothing depending on weather, especially when visiting the warm glasshouses.
A special section displays plant development through different geological time periods, with specimens representing various evolutionary stages. This exhibition helps visitors understand how plants have changed over millions of years.
