It is published by the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh.[3][4] The journal was named after one of the founders of the organization, Robert Sibbald. In order to reach the same quality as the other publication of the group, the Edinburgh Journal of Botany, they made sure to include the same editorial and peer review standards.[5]

A virtual conference alongside the charity PlantNetwork was conducted in October 2020 to promote horticultural accomplishments and to celebrate the 350th anniversary of the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh.[6][7]
