Friday 18th June
Leaving Devon we travel to Batsford Arboretum, for a guided tour. The collections at Batsford cover a wide range of plants from around the world but have an emphasis on the Far East. There are over 2,850 labelled specimens including about 1,300 different trees, shrubs and bamboo. In the Summer enjoy a walk beside the pools and streams or soak up the sunshine beside the beautiful wild flower areas, where you'll find clouds of forget-me-knots, buttercups, foxgloves and orchids. It's time for some of the rarer trees to shine too - among them the Californian Nutmeg, Dawn Redwood and Maidenhair Tree.
