There are few places in the UK where snowdrops can be seen in such profusion as Colesbourne Gardens. The gardens' collection of snowdrops is one of the most comprehensive in the country, with more than 350 cultivars in the collection (although not all growing throughout the estate at once). The snowdrop collection at Colesbourne Park originated in the plantings made by Henry John Elwes (1846-1922). According to Country Life (1999) it is ‘England’s greatest snowdrop garden.’

The collection has now launched, and we are excited to be able to share it with you, along with our experiences at Kelmscott - the home of William Morris.
