Information
A Year at Kew
The Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew was recently voted the UK's favourite garden and in July 2003 it was
designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Over a million visitors flock each year to enjoy the
glories of this beautiful garden, which hold a special place in our horticultural history. However,
Kew is so much more than just a garden it is also a highly respected centre of pioneering science,
research and conservation. This twelve part BBC television series is a month-by-month journey
through the garden, following the work of a committed team of experts offering a unique insight into
the gardens, glasshouses, laboratories and museums that give Kew its reputation for excellence. In
each episode we are introduced to some of the Gardens' spectacular monthly highlights, including the
unrivalled orchid festival in February, the famous crocus carpet in March and the stunning autumn
colour of the sweet chestnut, Kew's oldest tree. Throughout we follow the team of experts as we see
how their enthusiasm and skills help maintain Kew's role as world leader in plant research,
conservation, horticultural practice and as the world's most beautiful botanic garden.

Part: 1 Pests in the Palm House
The tree gang, headed by Jon Hammerton, deal with a diseased tree, while in the Palm house, keeper
