Governor George Don established the gardens in 1816 to create a recreational space for Gibraltar residents, leading to centuries of botanical research.

The Index Seminum Cottage Museum opened in 2006 contains natural history exhibits and a specialized library for horticultural research.

The gardens remain open daily from 8:00 AM until sunset, with no entrance fee required for accessing the grounds and collections.

The gardens feature distinct specimens including Dragon Trees, Stone Pines, and multiple palm species at an elevation of 40 meters.
