A six acre tropical garden in St Joseph, overlooking the scenic East coast.  Andromeda currently boasts over 600 different species of plants adapted to a range of tropical environments.  The carefully landscaped grounds are lavishly coloured with palms, orchids, exotics flowers and shrubs.

The beautiful, exotic flowers and trees are complemented by a stream which bisects the land and forms enchanting pools and waterfalls.

The name Andromeda is derived from the mythical Greek goddess who was chained to a rock.

Work on the Garden was started in 1954 by Mrs. Iris Bannochie, a local horticulturist. At her death, Mrs. Bannochie bequeathed Andromeda to the Barbados National Trust, which now runs the Garden.
