LATE SPRING AT KEW GARDENS AND KEW PALACE
Saturday 25th May 2024
Whatever the season, the Gardens at Kew are a
treat for the senses and brimming with botanic
treasures. In late May the display of flowers on the
laburnum pergola is spectacular. Its golden yellow
and sweet-scented flowers appear in chains up to
25cm long that frame the colonnade in a bright
and fragrant array. Designed to complement
Kew Palace, the Queen’s Garden is dedicated
exclusively to the plants and architectural styles
of the 17th century. Kew Palace is the smallest
and most intimate of the royal palaces. It was
purchased by George III in 1781 to accommodate
his expanding family, subsequently becoming
a more permanent home for the Royal Family.
Queen Charlotte died here in 1818 and having lain
untouched since her death, the Royal Kitchens at
Kew can now be explored for the very first time. Your visit will open the door to a lost space and let you discover more about life in the historic times, the servants who worked in the kitchens and Georgian culinary life. Take advantage of an optional ticket to ride on the Land Train for a guided tour of the Gardens for just £5.00 extra. There a wide variety of cafes and restaurants available for refreshments and the gift shop has a great range of gifts, plants and books to purchase.
