Gardens and gardening have been a life-long interest, and we have visited and photographed gardens and plants for many years. We travel widely, and have pictures from Inverewe in north-west Scotland to Tresco Abbey Gardens in the Isles of Scilly. We have ready access to many gardens and plant collections.

Herbaceous border at Inverewe gardens, north-west Scotland, July. In 1862 Osgood Mackenzie began to create a garden on 62 acres of rocky ground beside the sea near Gairloch. Windbreaks were planted to combat gales sweeping onto the coast. With a mild Gulf Stream climate and high rainfall, the gardens, owned by the National Trust for Scotland, are home to many exotic trees and shrubs. |
