Their gardens provide peaceful, yet vibrant horticultural havens. Horatio’s Garden Scotland features a woodland garden awash with striking seasonal blooms and framed by a beautiful collection of Betula pendula trees, as well as artfully planted borders, courtyard garden, gorgeous garden room, fruitful glasshouse and much more, there’s plenty to explore in this thoughtful, therapeutic garden which rarely opens to the public and is unusually nestled right in the heart of a Greater Glasgow & Clyde NHS hospital.
