The Misplaced Gardens of Heligan

Having heard rather a lot regarding the gardens I did ponder whether or not they’d keep as a lot as my expectations. It was a precedence that proved to be unfounded – I found it in all probability probably the most magical place and bought right here away feeling utterly impressed.

I’m optimistic it’s a surprising place to go to at any time of yr, nonetheless in early June the large gunnera leaves and tree ferns have been current and newly unfurled, and a damp spell quite a few weeks earlier had ensured that the whole thing was extraordinarily lush and inexperienced. It really was enchanting.

I took a number of photographs so I believed I’d share them proper right here.We recently created a small fernery area in our yard at dwelling so our go to provided huge inspiration, and naturally I bought right here dwelling with a tree fern in order so as to add to my assortment. Now I’m merely questioning if I can deal with to squeeze in a Gunnera someplace!
