What you need to know
- Card only at the gate, since the Hortus takes no cash for tickets
- Ponds and poisonous plants sit along the paths, so keep younger kids close and on the paths
- No ball games in the garden: balls and frisbees are not allowed, and your own food and drink stay out of the café and its terrace
About
A botanical garden founded in 1638 as a medicinal herb garden, now growing more than 4,000 plant species.
Kids head first for the Butterfly House, where tropical butterflies fly free and new ones hatch in a chrysalis cabinet. The Palm House holds ancient cycads, the Climate House runs from jungle to desert, and the carnivorous plant bed puts Venus flytraps and sundews at kid eye level.
