The Isabella Plantation in Richmond Park, Surrey, is a 40 acre woodland garden set within a Victorian woodland plantation planted in the 1830’s. First opened to the public in 1953, it is best known for its evergreen azaleas, which line the ponds and streams and at their peak of flower in late April and early May.
My previous visit was in late August 2022 and the floral offerings were somewhat disappointing although it was still a lovely place for a walk. The timing was perfect this month though, as the long queue to the car park indicated.
Let’s take a walk and immerse ourselves in the glorious colours of this garden.
Especially for Jo (I know she loves rhodies!) and her Jo’s Monday Walks

Stunning images Jude! I love the way you’ve colour-themed your shots and can’t possibly choose a favourite! It’s years since I was here even though it’s really just down the road 🙂
Thanks Sarah, glad you enjoyed the post. My daughter goes here often, as well as Bushy Park.
Excellent images, Jude! Brilliant grouping of the photographs, some marvellous colours
What a beautiful place. The colours are stunning.
I absolutely adore rhodies – these look fabulous and your photos are stunning.
So beautiful! A place to put on the list for our next visit.
Only in May!
OMG…what gorgeous colors!
