Wakehurst has revealed its autumn events programme.
The gardens will transform into a tapestry of reds, golds and yellows.
Fungi will also begin to emerge, including Devil's fingers and Shaggy Inkcap.
A highlight of the season is the Wallace & Gromit: Fantastic Fungi Trail, running from October 17 to November 1.
The trail, inspired by Wallace & Gromit and the villainous penguin Feathers McGraw, takes children on a mission to uncover the 'tricks and treats' of fungi found across the Sussex landscape.
