Poisons and Potions: A new autumn trail coming soon

Posted: 25 Sep 2026

Poisons and Potions launches on 1 October, just in time for spooky season.

Follow the Poisons and Potions trail through the glasshouses and hunt down the trail signs as you explore. Each sign holds clues to help you decide whether the species in front of you is a poison, a potion, or a bit of both.

Once you’ve cracked the clues, put your new knowledge to the test with games and puzzles in the booklet. You can also enter our colouring competition, with a soft toy up for grabs for our favourite entries.

The booklet comes in two versions, one for ages 4–7 and one for ages 7 and up, so the whole family can join the hunt together.

Secrets in Colour: last chance

In the meantime, our current Secrets in Colour trail is still running. Pick up an activity booklet for just £1.50 while stocks last.
