The living plant collections include the Alpine and Rock Garden, Aquatic, Arboretum, Arid, Aroid, Bonsai, Bromeliad, Carnivorous Plant, Cycad, Fern, Grass, Island Flora, Mediterranean Garden, Orchid, Palm, Temperate Herbaceous, Tender Temperate, Tropical Herbaceous, and Tropical Woody and Climbers Collections.

The Aquatic Garden is near the Jodrell laboratory.
The Aquatic Garden, which celebrated its centenary in 2009, provides conditions for aquatic and marginal plants.
The large central pool holds a selection of summer-flowering water lilies and the corner pools contain plants such as reed mace, bulrushes, Phragmites and smaller floating aquatic species.

The Bonsai Collection is housed in a dedicated greenhouse near the Jodrell laboratory.

The Arid Collection (including Cactaceae and many other succulent plants) is housed in the Tropical Nursery, the Princess of Wales Conservatory and the Temperate House.

The Carnivorous Plant collection is housed in the Princess of Wales Conservatory.

The Grass Garden was created on its current site in the early 1980s to display ornamental and economic grasses; it was redesigned and replanted between 1994 and 1997.
Over 580 species of grasses are displayed.

The Orchid Collection is housed in two climate zones within the Princess of Wales Conservatory.
To maintain an interesting display the plants are changed regularly so that those on view are generally flowering.
The Rock Garden, originally built of limestone in 1882, is now constructed of Sussex sandstone from West Hoathly, Sussex.
The rock garden is divided into six geographic regions: Europe, Mediterranean and Africa, Australia and New Zealand, Asia, North America, and South America.
There are currently 2,480 different "accessions" growing in the garden.

The Arboretum, which covers the southern two-thirds of the site, contains over 14,000 trees of many thousands of varieties.
