Wisley is all about inspirational gardening, rather than a museum of plants and conservation. In particular, visit the mixed border and glass house borders during summer and you'll be sure to get plenty of inspiration. And a visit wouldn't be complete without stepping inside the spectacular Glasshouse, where you can take a journey around the world in plants.
