    Here are some of the photos from Wisley on 3rd April 2011. Hope you enjoy them - it is worth visiting if you are within distance as the magnolias, camellias, azaleas and rhododendrons are breath taking.

      Lovely pictures. Any idea what is that tree with the smooth trunk and the white flowers which appears in a few pictures straight after it? Thanks.

      :) I did enjoy my day out with you VP ... thank you for sharing it. I just love the woodland scenes and the beautiful double pink Daffodils ... I had some mini pink ones in Bucks but there were not as striking as these.

      Mira, my guess would be Eucalyptus on the tree and Magnolia on the flower .. but they are just guesses.

      Lovely photos Victoria Plum :thumbsup:

      Wisley is just a few minutes down the road from us, we used to pop there every other weekend when the kids were young to feed the fish in the ponds.
