Exbury is one of the finest Rhododendron Gardens in the World. We hold an enormous collection of over ten thousand specimens which at their flowering peak in May are truly breathtaking.

They were the main passion of Lionel de Rothschild, but he also had a deep interest in all plants and developed other collections along side the Rhododendrons.

Perhaps his greatest legacy is the diverse tree and shrub collection, mostly planted in the 20’s and 30’s, so now reaching splendid maturity. These original collections have not remained static, continued enthusiasm from the Rothschild family has enabled them to be renewed and added to, to this day.
