Blooming rhododendrons at Wentworth Castle Gardens

Wentworth Castle Gardens in South Yorkshire is best known for its collection of rhododendron blooms whose flowers brighten up borders and pathways each spring.
In fact, this Grade I listed landscape garden is home to a National Plant Collection of Rhododendron Species. Rhododendrons began to be introduced here in the 1870s when the estate was owned by Thomas Wentworth. Subsequent owners and gardeners have since added new varieties of these hardy plants, which thrive in the area’s acidic soil.
In this video, you’ll discover more about the history of Wentworth Castle Gardens and find out how the National Trust cares for this special place in partnership with Barnsley Council and Northern College.
