Logan Botanic Garden
Logan Botanic Garden is a botanical garden near Port Logan on the Rhins of Galloway, at the south-western tip of Scotland. The Botanic Garden was established in 1869 and was gifted to Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh in 1969. It is now operated as part of the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh's Living Collection. The area has a mild climate due to the influence of the North Atlantic drift. The combination of this and the sheltered aspect of the gardens enables plants to be cultivated which would not normally survive outdoors in Scotland, with species from as  far away as Chile, Vietnam and New Zealand all thriving in Logan's borders. Features of Logan include a sizeable Walled Garden complete with formal fish pond, an eco-Conservatory housing a variety of South African plants, Tasmanian Creek area, and Discovery Centre which houses various exhibitions throughout the seasons. The garden is also home to Plant Heritage's National Plant Collections of Gunnera, Griselinia and Leptospermum.
