Devon is the home of over 40 National Collections -  from Agapanthus to Zephyranthes - from diminutive bulbs to majestic trees.

Individual collections can be viewed, although the arrangements vary from collection to collection depending on where they are held (some in private gardens, other in nurseries or botanic gardens) and also the time when the collection is best appreciated, depending for example on flowering time or season.

Please use the menu on the left to view details of the individual collections.

Please note that not all the Collections held in Devon are represented here yet - it will take a short time to transfer the information from the old site. If you are a Collection Holder whose Collection is not yet on this site, and you would like to add it yourself, please contact the site administrator.
