BBC Gardeners World's Carol Klein was in the Explorers Garden (just next to the Pitlochry Festival theatre) over the weekend. She said: "This is one of the most beautiful gardens I’ve ever been in... it’s a huge tribute to Scotland’s past the wonderful plant explorers who went out and brought these plants in".
She got a warm welcome from Garden Manager Julia Corden- who is the SRGC's President Elect.
