\"Stanhopea<\/a>\"Streptocarpus<\/a>\"View<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Succulent<\/a>\"Anthurium<\/a>\"Ipheion<\/a><\/p>\n

In my first post about RHS Garden Wisley<\/a>, I focused on orchids, but there was certainly plenty more to enjoy. There’s only one more orchid in this post, a Stanhopea<\/a> in the first picture. Stanhopeas are known for their bizarre but short-lived flowers, only lasting a few days. We certainly were lucky to find so many in bloom at the Wisley Glasshouse at the beginning of December.<\/p>\n

\"Aloe<\/a>\"Fittonia<\/a>\"Spiral<\/a><\/p>\n

The Glasshouse holds many more tropical, exotic blooms, but they had competition for our attention from plants with variegated leaves. Wisley’s displays featured foliage with spots, stripes, swirls, spirals, and veins in a rainbow of colors. I was especially impressed with the many variegated begonias. The Alpine Houses also showcased some variegated plants, including cyclamens with various fascinating patterns. They were great examples of how gardeners can enjoy beautiful hues without flowers.<\/p>\n
