Our subtropical and exotic plant collection is unrivalled; plants that should be found in protected glasshouses thrive and naturalise out of doors. Our garden is an immersive landscape, transporting the visitor to experience Mediterranean regions from around the world. Our plants grow in association with each other as in the wild.
