Scotland's blooming history

Jim McColl and George MacKenzieIf you plan on taking advantage of our Open Day on Saturday 25 September, feel free to have a stroll around the Archivists’ Garden between General Register House and New Register House.

This was opened in June by Jim McColl (left, with the Keeper of the Records of Scotland, George MacKenzie of NAS) and featured on BBC's
Beechgrove Garden).

The garden is planted with 57 separate species, each with a unique connection to some aspect of Scottish family history – Birth, Marriage, Death, Heraldry, Homecoming, Tartan, or Famous Scots. View some slides of the opening here.
