When we think of tropical plants and luscious gardens, we're often taken to places such as the Seychelles or the Côte d’Azur with their succulents and creamy florals. What we forget is that the United Kingdom is also blessed with incredible homegrown plants, flowers and shrubs. Trying to find damsons, or the Scottish primrose, outside of the UK is next to impossible. It’s these country-specific plants that inspired the various botanical gardens around the world and, while Kew Gardens is often first to spring to mind, it’s the Royal Botanic Garden in Edinburgh that’s celebrated in Kingdom Botanica from Kingdom Scotland.
