To help aid its extensive work answering the nation’s gardening questions, the charity has just launched a new AI-enabled-tool, an interactive Chat-Botanist.

The new service offers advice based on the output of RHS botanists and horticulturists over the last 5 years to answer users’ questions. Chris Moncrieff, RHS Head of Horticultural Information and Advice, explains: “At the RHS we love nothing more than sharing our top gardening tips and advice to as many people as possible, be that through this new RHS Chat-Botanist or face to face in our gardens or at our shows. “We especially love some of the more off the wall questions we get asked. The public definitely likes to keep us on our toes and we wouldn’t want it any other way!”

The new RHS Chat-Botanist will be available free for RHS members, and available in the coming weeks on RHS Grow with a small monthly fee and has been designed to act as a supplement to the existing service provided through the expert customer service team.
