Album Info:

Wilfrid Fox was born in 1875. Outside his professional life, as a specialist in dermatology and working at two London hospitals, trees were his great interest. It was a passion that was well-established long before he started to create his own arboretum. In 1928 Dr Fox helped to found the Roads Beautifying Association, an organisation set up to improve the public environment by promoting ornamental street tree planting. In 1948 he was awarded the Victoria Medal of Honour, the Royal Horticultural Society's highest award, for his work in this field and over the years the arboretum has received many prizes from the RHS for its trees and shrubs. Although Dr Fox started off as an amateur gardener and botanist, he quickly acquired a reputation as an authority in his subject. His greatest enthusiasm was reserved for Sorbus, the group of plants which includes the mountain ash and whitebeam.
