    If maples are the main interest, Wisley is a better destination than Kew. Assuming Westonbirt is too far for Alex to go.

    I was assuming Wisley was also a bit far! It's quite a way outside of London, and not too easily accessible by public transport.

    I noticed that many of the pictures of mature trees from Maples for Gardens are from the Valley Gardens, which may too be too far for what you are looking for.

    Even if they are a bit sparse on maples, there seem much else to keep your interest. Getting jealous of your options!
