Cambridge University Botanic Garden, Botanical garden in Cambridge, England
The Cambridge University Botanic Garden extends across 16 hectares between Trumpington Road and Hills Road, featuring collections of over 8,000 plant species.
Professor John Stevens Henslow established the garden for Cambridge University in 1831, leading to its public opening fifteen years later in 1846.
The garden maintains several national plant collections, including Alchemilla, Bergenia, Fritillaria, and Lavender species, contributing to botanical research and education.
Visitors can access the garden from April through September between 10 AM and 6 PM, with reduced hours during winter months and admission fees of £5 for adults.
The Winter Garden section provides a specialized display from December to April, demonstrating how plants adapt and thrive during cold British weather conditions.
