About this event

What will summer bring? An exhibition on Cornish gardens and gardening at Kresen Kernow

We are digging into the past of Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly’s gardens and gardening heritage!

Uncover the stories of Cornish plant collector John Hawkins and grand estate gardens now lost to time. Learn how Cornwall was at the cutting edge of experimental horticulture and a showcase for pioneering initiatives such as Probus Demonstration Garden.

Plus, discover several artists inspired by gardens, an original gardener’s diary from the 19th century and more in this fascinating journey through our collections.

This free exhibition is available to visit during our usual opening hours.
