#Worldaidsday msg from Madonna

Donald Trump You can try to erase LGBTQ+ People & other minority groups from history, but #HIV #AIDS effects everybody regardless of age, race, gender, sexuality.
Not to commemorate #worldaidsday (1st Dec) is to dishonour the lives lost & a missed opportunity to continue the fight against HIV/AIDS.

When all is quiet & everyone's gone home, late coming visitors sneak into the garden @rhswisley. We just have to hope they haven't pulled the plug 🔌 ⚡️💡 🎄 #rhsglow

See the garden in a new light, #Wisley #RHSWisley #Glow

Potting prickly little Opuntia pottsii 🌵

I get all the glamorous jobs, pressure washing & cleaning out the drains.

Just a small job of potting up this Cryptomeria japonica 'Elegans' @rhswisley #Wisley @airpotsystem #ukgardening

Nerine flowers. Under the right conditions = angle & lighting you can see the flowers Iridescence, best displayed against a black background lit from above.

An ever changing palette of autumn colour paints the landscape that is @rhswisley

The gardens ablaze with autumn colour. @rhswisley #Autumn

When a tree dies its all too easy to just grub it out or remove it completely, here @rhswisley the arborists have cleared around the roots giving a visual indication of what's underground. #wisley

Bulb planting, visit @rhswisley in spring 2026 to see a mass of colour. #wisley #bulbs #ukgardening

Glasshouse 4 Slowly filling up with plants for overwintering, less hectic than previous years, so far. But who knows what I'll end up with in here.

Perks of the job 😋

Glasshouse 4 pressure washed & ready for plants returning from the garden for overwintering.

Sweet Pepper trial now finished.
Trials team cleared them out yesterday,
I'm now in the process of cleaning the glasshouse in preparation for plants returning from the garden for overwintering.

Rostrinucula dependens caught my eye this morning whilst watering.

Gomesa radicans, a beautiful miniature orchid.
Saw one at work, so bought one online for the terrarium. Look forward to the day it flowers.

Bonzai show at rhs wisley this weekend.

Don't judge me.
I've walked across two islands, up & down steep treacherous hills. That's my excuse & I'm sticking to it 😋
