The Whirlybirds are a group of botanical artists who have been drawing together at the Royal Botanic Gardens for 30 years.
They are holding an exhibition of artworks of significant trees in the Plant Craft Cottage. Some of these trees are significant because of their age; some are significant due to their size or rarity; and some of these trees have been planted by VIPs or dignitaries.
Meet the Whirlies, buy the lovely book that accompanies the exhibition and purchase prints.
