Jyll Bradley Mr Roscoe's Garden

Visual artist Jyll Bradley lifts the lid on one of the most extraordinary stories in British botanic history as artist in residence at the Liverpool Botanical Collection. The vision of a Liverpool founding father, William Roscoe (1753-1831), the Collection is now among the largest in UK municipal ownership. In May a garden conceived by Jyll - Mr Roscoe's Garden opened at the Chelsea Flower Show and will tour the UK in the summer, culminating in September with the launch of the artist's book of the same name. The Botanic Garden, a new photographic installation will open from 20 September at the Walker Art Gallery.
