The garden was established by George Wilson, a chemist and horticulturalist, and given to the RHS in 1903. It continues to be developed. Edward White designed the rock garden in 1911. Woodland, heather and bog gardens were added. Lanning Roper designed a walled canal garden in the 1960s. There are many demonstration gardens and, of course, an excellent plant collection.

    It's impossible to over visit this garden ! Rather like the Hilliers gardens and Arboretum it is a plant-lovers heaven. Pleasantly laid out, with an interesting range of garden design styles and an enormous selection of fascinating plants with lots to admire in flower whatever the time of year. Now that the new glasshouse is built and the plantings are flourishing one can enjoy a day in the tropics as well! It has a good range of exotic flowering plants to always be interesting.
