The Queen at Waddesdon Manor: Her Majesty planting a tree, 1890. 'The visit of her Majesty [Queen Victoria], accompanied by Prince and Princess Henry of Battenberg, to Waddesdon Manor, near Aylesbury, the seat of Baron Ferdinand de Rothschild, M.P., on Wednesday, May 14, was mentioned in our last [issue]...Her Majesty then drove round the gardens and park in her own pony-chaise, which had been sent from Windsor on purpose. Before inspecting the orchid-houses and the aviary, she planted a fir-tree on the lawn as a memorial of her visit. The varieties of orchids were explained by Mr. F. Sander, of St. Albans. The Royal visitors rested a little while in the summer pavilion, on the lawn, where tea was served'. From "Illustrated London News", 1890.
