RHS Garden Wisley
Stretching over 240 acres, Wisley is the flagship of the Royal Horticultural Society, demonstrating the best in gardening practices. Highlights include the magnificent Rock Garden, rock pools and Alpine Houses, the glories of the mixed borders and Rose Garden and the 16-acre fruit field containing over 700 apple cultivars. Model gardens demonstrate design ideas on a realisable scale, reflecting changing styles and new techniques.
Not forgetting the wonderful new Wisley glasshouse with exotics from all around the world.
Whatever the season the Garden serves as a working encyclopedia for gardeners of all levels.

Throughout the year the Garden plays host to a series of exciting season events from the Music Festival in June, Flower Show in August to the fabulous Taste of Autumn in October. For families there are activities, trails and events provided during the school holidays. For further information check the website or call the Garden.
