The Missing Treasure Chest - Can YOU Find It in Time?

Rose Bush, the green-fingered head gardener at the Botanic Gardens, has a passion for growing rare plants. Recently, she acquired some seeds from a rare flower species found only on the highest peak of the highest mountain range in Northern China. The gardens would surely become Belfast's top attraction if they made their way into the flowerbeds! To keep the seeds safe, Rose stored them in an ornamental chest displayed in the Palm House. Imagine her horror when Rose found the treasure chest had disappeared! Could the owners of a rival attraction have pinched them to thwart the Botanic Garden's success? All seemed lost until Rose discovered a map and some curious clues floating on a giant lily pad in the Tropical Ravine. The Exploration Society has been called in to help - we need TOP Explorers (YOU!) to follow the clues and track down the treasure trove.
