Science- Pod cast inspiration

Botanical Gardens

After visiting the Botanical gardens we decided to base our proect on it. They have collection of over 8000 different plant varieties, spread across 560 acres of beautiful countryside. Along with the world’s largest single spanned glasshouse, designed by Lord Foster, that has the best display of mediterranean climate zone plants in the Northern hemisphere. Their mission is to inspire, educate and conserve all these beautiful sprecies of plants.
When we were in the botanical gardens it got us thinking about what we were seeing and the reasons for it. Some questions we wanted answered were:

·         Why grow so many amazing  plants?
·         Why so many different plants
·         Are they intentional
·         What are they used for
·         Do they all have different purpose
·         Do they grow them there to preserve or use

·         Do they grow them from the beginning
