It can be both tricky to drive in the centre and parking can be expensive so I recommend train from Vårgårda (free parking at station) to Gothenburg. You can buy tickets to västtåg in the västtrafik app ToGo. If you take SJ train you buy tickets on there website before you go on the train.
You will arrive at the centralstation and palmhuset is located near the station.
