Tucked away beside the River Thames, Chelsea Physic Garden is the oldest botanic garden in London and houses around 5,000 different medicinal, herbal, edible and useful plants - a living library dedicated to healing with plants. Medicinal plants have been grown at the Garden since the 17th century, a tradition continued in the present day with displays of medicinal and herbal species used globally in the past, present and potentially in the future.Chelseaphysicgarden.co.ukInstagram.com/chelseaphysicgardenTwitter.com/ChelsPhysicGdn
