DESCRIPTION:A chance to visit the delightful Cambridge University Botanic 
 Garden after hours.\n\nThe Botanic Garden was established as a University 
 teaching and research resource by Professor John Stevens Henslow\, and was
  opened to the public in 1846. Henslow\, who inspired his pupil Charles Da
 rwin with a love of natural science\, recognised the need to study plants 
 in their own right. He was convinced that trees were the most important pl
 ants in the world and these form the framework of the Garden. With a frame
 work of mature trees and shrubs\, this paradise of plants comprises divers
 e\, superbly landscaped settings including: the Rock Garden\, representing
  the alpine plants from the mountains of every continent\; the Lake and Wa
 ter Garden\, teeming with bird life\; tropical rainforest\, the alpine hou
 se and seasonal displays in the Glasshouses\; and the historic Systematic 
 Beds\, displaying 1600 hardy representatives of more than 80 families of f
 lowering plants.\n\nCome and meet a descendant of Newton’s famous apple 
 tree – and your local RSC and SCI committees.\n\nMeet at the new Brooksi
 de Gate entrance (just off Trumpington Road)\, Bateman Street\, Cambridge\
 , CB2 1JF.
