It costs £7 to get in and, to be honest, it's really not worth it. It's surprisingly small and is surrounded on all sides by busy roads, so it's not very peaceful. The focus is on collecting plant specimens rather than creating an attractive garden - very few flowers and just lots of beds of rather dull looking plants! Nice lavender scones in the tearoom though
I went today because i thought it was free but it turns out it cost 5 pounds to get in and they have free tours once your in. It does look nice from the outside though so next time i have cash i will go check it out. As it was we went to the Tate Britain down the road (free).

According to your search engine, the Garden's open on Saturday. Do sort out your search engine.
