These last weeks, Camilla Parker Bowles increases public appearances. On Wednesday June 12, 2024, she visited the Garden Museum in London. This is a museum dedicated to the history of gardening in England. She took the opportunity to reveal how much she loves spending time in this museum. Besides, she would like to take an important role from her husband.
“I don’t know how many visits I’ve made here – a lot. I know my husband is the patron, but maybe I should give him a little nudge, I’d like to nudge him that one“, she declared. Indeed, Charles III is also a patron of the Garden Museum. For many years, the couple has enjoyed spending time in this museum.

The royal couple participated in an orchid naming ceremony, which involves placing a plaque containing the new name in the orchid pot before presenting a birth certificate for the orchid – Dendrobium – Duke and Duchess of Cornwall.
Camilla Parker Bowles has always been passionate about gardening
“It’s such a special place that every time I’m asked, I love to come back and I think this wonderful exhibition celebrating women in gardening is so important“added Camilla Parker Bowles.”I’m so happy that you’re celebrating all the women who are these great gardeners because we love gardening, a lot of times it’s the men who are celebrated and not the women, so I think you’re doing a brilliant job here.”
The exhibition which seems to particularly please the wife of the King of England shows how green spaces have become places where “ideas about creativity and domesticity, nature, sexuality and relationships could be uprooted and redefined“.
Camilla Parker Bowles found an important man in her life
Among the different points in common that unite Camilla and Charles III, gardening and outdoor living are among them. “I love gardening, she said. It’s therapeutic… Go to the garden, do it“, she declared in particular in the columns of Country Life, of which she was on the cover in 2022.
Once again, Camilla Parker Bowles had the pleasure of being able to reunite with Alan Titchmarsh, gardening expert and television presenter, and florist Shane Connolly, in charge of the flowers for Charles and Camilla’s coronation in May 2023 but also for their wedding in 2005.
