*************

Inverewe Garden is a botanical garden in Scottish Highlands. It is located just to the north of Poolewe in Wester Ross.

The garden was created in 1862 by Osgood Mackenzie on the 850 ha (2100 acres) estate surrounding Inverewe House. It covers some 20 ha (50 acres) and includes more than 2500 species of exotic plants. The garden has been the property of the National Trust for Scotland since it was gifted to the Trust along with a generous endowment for its future upkeep by Osgood's daughter Mairi Sawyer in 1952.

A decision by NTS in 2008 to close the garden in summer evenings and possibly throughout winter, and to phase out the traditional issue of passes for local residents, caused some local controversy and prompted a campaign to oppose the changes.
