3 Visits in a Year, A Record for The Surrey Group's Wisteria Collection!

After it’s long overdue exposure on the BBC’s Gardeners’ World television program the Wisteria collection held by The Surrey Group at a private garden just outside Woking has suddenly received the acclamation it deserves.

We have had to organise three trips to view the collection this year and have a waiting list for viewings in 2026. 

Do get in touch if you would like to be included on the waiting list for next year’s visit.

The weather has been glorious, wisteria looks at it’s best against a blue sky or dark storm clouds and thankfully for all three visits this year we were graced with blue skies.  The pictures were taken on the final visit of the year just as the Wisteria floribunda were at their peak.

Many thanks to Stacey Baird for helping maintain the collection and organising the visits and to Marian Badger for helping establish this National Collection in the first place!
