Six miles south of Oxford on the A4074 is the Harcourt Arboretum. This is an integral part of the plant collection of the Botanic Garden.
There are no walls, glasshouses or straight lines at the Arboretum - it is almost as if it were designed to be the antidote to the formality of the Botanic Garden in central Oxford.
In May and June the Arboretum is ablaze with azaleas and rhododendrons and in October the Japanese maples can brighten even the dullest day. But there is more. In spring there is a quintessentially English 10-acre woodland and in summer a 37-acre meadow full of wild flowers. The Arboretum is a magical place to spend a day at any time of year.
