Woodland GardenThis area just south-east of the Princess of Wales Conservatory illustrates the change in vegetation between forest and alpine zones and consists, as in nature, of three layers: a deciduous tree canopy of oaks and birches supports climbers and provides shade for deciduous shrubs such as maples and rhododendrons which in turn protect ground-cover plants like hellebores, primulas, Himalayan blue poppies and North American trilliums.

The Woodland Garden is number 46 on the Visitor Map.
