From the archive - Kew's World Garden (1941)
This wonderful film was recently found in the British Council archives. Made in 1941, the film explores Kew Gardens and the work taking place at the time. The camera takes you behind the scenes at Kew in the 1940s and glorious Technicolor shows off the beauty of flowers and their surroundings.
