He added: “Spring at Wisley is always an exciting time as the structural beauty of the garden in winter gives way to an abundance of new plant life.”
November is the perfect month to plant tulip bulbs with evidence suggesting they do better planted in late autumn, according to the Royal Horticultural Society.
A rich mix of tulip varieties have been planted, “chosen for their bold colours, shapes and staggered flowering times”, a spokesperson for the gardens said.
A mixture of yellow, orange and white Fosteriana tulips known for their large wide flowers will fill the raised lawns outside the Old Laboratory whilst a combination of white, pink and lilac varieties will cover the Sundial Lawn.
Tulip filled pots at key entrance points throughout the garden will also add colour.
In addition, there will be a display of 100 different tulip varieties in the Trials Garden.
