Plants at the Savill Gardens

One day in the Savill gardens I noticed this tree with unusual cone structures, like teasels. It comes from Asia.

Platycarya Strobilacae

One of the largest and most impressive trees is called Podocarpus Salignus. It looks like a huge yew tree but the leaves are more feathery.





At this time of year at Virginia Water they feed all the trees with compost; it's very impressive how the gardeners take care of everything. Some camellias are in flower already.
