A beautiful English garden located in Southern England, nothing can beat the tranquility and the serenity of the Wakehurst Place Gardens. Known as one of the most outstanding botanic gardens in the country this 500 acre property is managed by the Kew Gardens Trust.
 
The gardens of Wakehurst Place offer a diverse array of delights; walled gardens, water gardens, woodland reserves and even wetland conservation areas can be found here. The mild climate and the naturally high rainfall in the area allow plants that cannot be grown at the Kew Gardens to flourish here.  

The Woodland Area features plants from various temperate climates all over the world. These plants can be seen in different settings ranging from walled gardens to waterside and bog gardens. The estate is also home to four national collections of Southern Beeches, Hypericums, Skimmias and Birches.

Apart from the idyllic gardens of Wakehurst, visitors can also visit the historic Mansion built by Sir Edward Culepeper in 1590. A distinctive characteristic of this home is its elaborate Tudor facade. Located right next to The Mansion is the Sir Henry Price Walled Garden, filled with varieties of flowers that bloom in pastel shades. This has been designed as a traditional cottage garden.   

Among other areas to visit in this popular tourist attraction are the Southern Hemisphere Garden, The Winter Garden, the Monocotyledon Border and the Asian Health Garden.
