The 'Garden Capital of the World' is often how Cornwall is thought of throughout the world. Cornwall enjoys the power of the Gulf Stream with its temperate climate of warm summers, mild and wet winters which in turn allows exotic and rare plants to thrive. Where else can you find so many gardens with history dating back to the Iron Age? As long ago as the early 19th century Cornish gardeners were part of the Victorian plant hunters who collected exotic plants and seeds from all around the world. That gives us what we have today: over 60 fabulous gardens to explore with lush vegetation and sub-tropical theatres of colour brimming with exciting, rare and beautiful plants.

Suddenly, she seemed to be somehow embarrassed, and I felt so bad about that. For my surprise and sadness, hours later I was browsing her notebook scripts again, and noted that unfortunately she had erased the whole story. My conclusion; - As adults, we are n...
