Even though these gardens were set up in 1831 for scientific study of plants and saw Charles Darwin as one of their students; they are open to the public. Consequently there is also an element of amenity display, as this fine exposition of winter colour demonstrates. In a season with a paucity of flowers the winter garden uses coloured barks and foliage to create interest.
