As you explore the different habitats around the zoo you’ll notice that the incredible outdoor plants also attract a range of UK species – like bumble bees.
In fact, we love bumble bees so much we’ve created a whole garden for them to ensure they have plenty of food and places to nest and hibernate.
Bumblebees are disappearing at a worrying rate; that’s why it’s important we do all we can to help them. We’re doing all we can to protect the incredible species found right here on our doorstep.
Discover more about this important garden space, how and why our fantastic horticulture team created it and how you too can give bees a helping hand.
We're home to over 2000 carnivorous plants, making our collection one of the largest ever in the UK.
These incredible plants are kept in special conditions at the zoo.
We look after more than 1,500 orchids originating from South America.
