September Opening – Change of Dates

Due to the prolonged hot, dry weather this summer, the garden has developed considerably earlier than usual, with much of the flowering season brought forward.

We have therefore decided to reduce our planned September opening from three days to one.

We appreciate that some visitors may already have planned a trip to Wildside while staying in the area, so the garden will be open on ** FrIday 4th Sept, from 10am–5pm **.

Thank you for your understanding. We look forward to welcoming those of you who can join us.

“Nature presents us with a treasure trove of gardening ideas, whether under our very noses, or in far-flung corners of the globe. By allowing our observations of natural landscapes to inform our plantings, I believe we can loosen the strait-jacket that long-established horticultural practices impose on us, allowing the enormous creative potential, latent within most of us, the freedom to express itself “.

Keith Wiley

Hailed by many as the most imaginative and adventurous garden in England today. Over the last 20 years this Devon garden has evolved from a flat, featureless field to a rich and complex landscape that not only offers ecological niches to a vast array of plants but creates a complete and satisfying dreamworld of rare emotional power.

By manipulating scale, a three acre site feels much bigger than it is, evoking deep mysterious valleys and distant mountain tops, or the journey of water from a sacred spring to the oxbow lakes of the plain. The garden captures the essence of remembered landscapes, ranging across the globe from the Temblor hills of California to the rockscapes of Utah, from the flower meadows of South Africa to the mossy walls and tumbledown barns of England.
