Been there and it is a place for unusual plants. Great and interesting garden to visit.
It is run by Bleddyn Wynn-Jones who goes plant-hunting to far off places you would not, perhaps, think of. such as Vietnam. Well worth a visit!

Here in N Ireland he will be giving 'The Horticultural Lecture of the Year' next March and should be very different and interesting.

Certainly, Maggi.  I'll send you the Brochure cover when I have it and full details - hopefully before Christmas.  This is an annual event here.
