The Palm House at Edinburgh's Royal Botanic Garden has reopened to the public following a restoration project that spanned six years, according to the BBC.
The project involved caring for hundreds of plants during the restoration period, with one tree reported not to have survived the process.
The Palm House is one of the garden's historic glasshouse structures, and its closure for repair work meant an extended period without public access to the collection it houses.
Further details on the specific nature of the restoration work, its cost, or the reasons for the six-year timeline were not included in the available reporting.
The reopening marks the return of a long-standing attraction at the botanic garden, which draws visitors to view its plant collections throughout the year.
The report was carried by the BBC.
