North American Landscape: Kew at the British Museum

This summer the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew and the British Museum have created a North American-themed landscape on the Museum's west lawn. The North American Landscape focuses on eastern and central North America, from Florida in the south to New England and Canada in the north. It takes the visitor on a journey across the North American continent by featuring unique and rare plants from its differing climates, and showcasing its rich biodiversity as well as contextual information on exploration, plant discoveries by Europeans, plant uses and threats and indigenous themes.
