The winner stood out as a place newly transformed by a masterful work of restoration… to the tune of £15m. Under wraps for five years, Kew’s heart of glass has been reborn. Congratulations, Kew Gardens! #NGTReaderAwards

Best bit about @kewgardens today we're these two #youthexplainers which told us about the amazing relationship between the Cape Parrots and South Africa's Yellow Wood trees (Podocarpus henkelii). They were so good I had to get a rare selfie with them!
Our botanical summer spectacle was two blooming Puya raimondii, or Queen of the Andes, the largest bromeliad species in the world. Watch their growth from mid-May to September! They are still standing so its not too late to visit the Queens! https://t.co/Ejgfypp87Z
