There are more chances to go behind the scenes at Hyde Park’s working nursery and see how The Royal Parks produce and care for hundreds of thousands of plants each year. This guided tour offers rare access to a part of the park usually closed to the public, revealing where nearly half a million plants are grown annually to keep the Royal Parks in bloom. The tour also offers insight into the year-round cycle of work — from propagation through to planting — that shapes London’s seasonal displays across the capital’s green spaces. The tours take place on Friday afternoons at 3pm on 25th Sept, 2nd and 9th Oct, and cost £15 per person. The nursery is in the middle of Hyde Park, a short walk from the Serpentine North gallery.
