RHS Wisley is one of the world’s great gardens, packed with horticultural inspiration. From its beginnings, Wisley has been about plantsmanship and experimentation, and it continues in that spirit today. In summer 2021, they opened RHS Hilltop – The Home of Gardening Science, a state-of-the-art science building surrounded by three spectacular new gardens that embrace the latest ideas in horticulture, as well as opening their new Trials Garden. Wisley is the historic home of the RHS and houses one of the largest plant collections in the world. The gardens delight through every season: enjoy swathes of bulbs and blossom in spring, unforgettable mixed borders and roses in summer, autumn’s bountiful colours and frost-sparkled walks in winter.
