Experience the Spectacular Autumn Colours at Batsford from Mid-October!
Batsford Arboretum is gearing up for its annual autumn spectacle, as the 56-acre site near Moreton-in-Marsh prepares to dazzle visitors with a breathtaking display of seasonal colour. Home to one of the largest private collections of trees and shrubs in the UK, Batsford Arboretum is renowned for its stunning showcase of reds, golds, and yellows, thanks to its impressive variety of Japanese maples, Sorbus, Euonymus, and cherry trees.
Visitors can also enjoy the delightful scents of autumn as they explore, with the Katsura trees (Cercidiphyllum japonicum) filling the air with a sweet, burnt sugar fragrance. It's a true sensory experience, combining visual beauty with the unique smells of the season.
Autumn is also the ideal time for planting, and Batsford's Plant Centre, set in a charming walled garden, offers a fantastic selection of quality plants. From Acers, perfect for recreating the arboretum’s stunning colours, to winter bedding plants and spring-flowering bulbs, there’s something for every garden enthusiast looking to get a head start before winter.
