About the event
Join Alwyn Craven, Kew-accredited horticulturalist, for a guided walk through the Forest of Flowers in winter. The diverse woodland contains 30+ native tree and shrub species, with plenty of variety and lots of talk about. During the walk, Alwyn will give advice on identifying tree species in winter using buds, twigs, bark and overall form.

Tea, coffee and delicious homemade cakes will be provided after the walk, included with every ticket.
