Plants are taking over Brunel’s SS Great Britain! This Easter, see our new living exhibits and unearth the surprising Australian roots of the English garden.

 

WHAT TO EXPECT

🌱 Discover our Wardian Cases (Victorian sea-faring terraria) as they become a new permanent exhibition on the ship’s weather deck.

 

🪴 Explore Thomas Lang’s cabin. Head below deck and find out what life was like for passengers on board the SS Great Britain, including Nurseryman, Thomas Lang’s Cabin!

 

🌿 Become a Plant Hunter this Easter and track down exotic ferns with our ‘Fern-tastic’ family trail in, around and under the ship.
