With over 5000 species of plants – many of them medicinal or otherwise ‘useful’ to our lives – Chelsea Physic Garden still serves the same purpose almost 350 years after it was founded by the Worshipful Society of Apothecaries.

This lecture will revisit its past; some of the antique technologies pioneered there as well as profile some of its notable people and, of course, plants.

Part of the Mondays at One Gardens Series.

This is a free public lecture by Michael Holland, Chelsea Physic Garden.

There is no need to book in advance for this lecture. It runs on a first come first served basis.
