Westonbirt Arboretum
Flower Photographs, Plants and Trees
Westonbirt Arboretum has one of the largest collections of tree specimens in the world,over 18,000 trees set in beautiful English countryside. Autumn is the most popular for
its amazing colours, especially the magnificent collection of Japanese Maples.
In Winter they light up a lot of the trees at dusk (around 5pm), it's really spectacular.
In Spring there are a large selection of Magnolias in flower, as well as Bluebells and
Anemones - my favourite time. Summer is a great time for a slow, cool walk.
It was created by Robert Holford, who began the project in 1829. The Holford family
passed it to The Forestry Commission who now manage Westonbirt Arboretum
