Description:
Celebrating 100 years of Glendoick’s gardens. Euan Cox began clearing the woodland in 1925, and the first plants arrived in 1926. Glendoick garden and garden centre with its award-winning café is the ideal day out in April and May. Glendoick boasts a unique collection of plants from Cox plant-hunting expeditions in China and the Himalaya and hybrids raised in the garden, hundreds of rhododendrons and azaleas, magnolias and other acid-loving plants in the woodland garden and around the house. There are fine waterfall views in the woodland gardens.
