Queen Mother's Memorial Garden and Alpine Area

Open weekends only

To allow for the creation of a new, more efficient Energy Centre as part of the Edinburgh Biomes, the Queen Mother’s Memorial Garden and Alpine Area is currently only open to visitors at the weekend, with the gates opening from Friday afternoon.  The exact time of opening may vary from week to week.

The Glasshouses

Our Glasshouses are currently closed as part of Edinburgh Biomes, the Garden’s major restoration and construction project. Work is now underway to protect our globally important Living Collection of plants for future generations. We apologise for any inconvenience.
