Dig It!
Wednesday, 19 August 2026 - 3 minutes
After a summer break, Dig It is back! In this episode, Hester Macdonald explores Switzerland’s botanical gardens and explains why they’re great places to discover, learn and find inspiration.
Discover Lausanne’s Botanical Garden, the Natureum, and its two current exhibitions. Hester takes a closer look at Florama, an illustrated outdoor exhibition exploring plants and botanical facts, and Mimesis, an interactive indoor exhibition showing how nature has inspired everything from banknotes to hospital surfaces and naturally air-conditioned buildings.
With free entry to Swiss botanical gardens and plenty of gardens to explore across the country, Hester shares plenty of reasons to make a visit this summer or autumn.
