Raising Rarity Revealed

Saturday 17th August 2024

A behind the scenes tour.

Explore the critical work of Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria on this special Raising Rarity tour.

Head behind the scenes to our RBGV nursery, where you'll learn about the specialist production and propagation techniques used to save Victoria's most threatened plant species. Then, join a guided tour of our research garden, delving into the vital conservation efforts and cutting-edge research supporting these rare species.

At the end of the tour, each participant will receive their very own threatened plant species to take home - so you can do your bit in contributing to the preservation of our precious botanical heritage. Join RBGV in making a difference, one plant at a time.

Presented by Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria as part of the 'Survive & Thrive' program for National Science Week, supported by the Inspiring Victoria program.
