Two videos from RHS Garden Wisley, near Woking in Surrey. First, an exhibition of sculptures by Philip Hass, inspired by the paintings of Giuseppe Arcimboldo. Then below the jump, the garden from the sky.

Oh my goodness, thrilled to see that RHS Wisley has made it across the pond to your ongoing garden thread, Robin. My latter teenage years were spent in a small village near here, & it was one of my late mother’s favourite places to visit. I hadn’t been since then (more years ago than I’d care to admit!) but went with friends a few years ago when they were still living in Surrey, & it was just as gorgeous as ever, albeit with many changes/improvements since my last visit. The gift shop is fab, & I bought a pair of miniature green wellies sporting the RHS Wisley logo as a souvenir! I hope everyone enjoys the footage & thank you, Robin, for bringing back happy memories.
I’m so glad someone here knows the place, and it does look absolutely gorgeous!
Between your Wisley article & the definitely worth reading review of (original) Diorissimo on Persolaise’s site (https://persolaise.com/2020/04/christian-dior-diorissimo-review-edmond-roudnitska-1956.html#more-4938), I have had dearly held teenage memories awoken twice in two days! I did mention your Wisley footage when I commented on Persolaise’s article & also said I’d mention his article on here. Thank you, Robin, it’s been emotional!
Thank you, what a lovely piece on Diorissimo!
