Cor! I've always wanted to be 'blacklisted'

I can certainly help you out with that David.

Emma,
I had congratulated you earlier, but just now looked at the Google maps and photos of your new Thenford digs. I am proud to know someone who has the expertise and bandwidth to take on horticultural responsibility under all of that glass. You must be thrilled, and I am very curious as to what goes on in all of those houses. I know it will be in good hands. Very best wishes.

Here's a small flavour of what was in them from our visit in April 2008

and some more, beautifully maintained plants and a wonderful variety to give pleasure to Lord and Lady H.

Is that Geranium maderense in the second set of pictures?  I love that plant and have sometimes wondered if you could cross-breed it with a regular cranesbill to create a hardy version.  There's a project for you, Emma.

[Maggi Young]

With such an extensive range of glasshouses, what could you NOT grow to give pleasure in a stroll through the glasshouses and have great plants to spend time in the "big house"?  A very exciting and quite challenging prospect. Go Emma!

Yes, it looked stunning!

It will be a challenge . Been to visit Wisley today , went to see the cyclamen show , and the carnivorous plants and the took lots of pictures of the plant combos in the glasshouse . It's going to be fun

I hope cleaning all the glass is someone else's job. Do they have it done by contractors?

Emma is now frantically checking the small print in her new job specs

Brian...thank you, what a wonderful range of plant materials. Emma...getting more envious to see all of this. You are going to be in your element.
