| If you are planning on going to the west country in the UK, you must see the Winsford Walled Garden. http://www.winsfordwalledgarden.co.uk/
Winsford is only a short 1/2 hour drive from RHS Rosemoor. We have just returned from visiting many gardens in Summerset, Devon, Cornwall and one of the most enjoyable stops was to Winsford. Michael and his family have done a remarkable job building a 21 century garden within the structural back drop of a 19 century Victorian walled garden. The plant collection is remarkable with many unusual species arranged in a pleasant manner that you can get ideas for your own garden.

| Thanks, erstanfo and botann! I'm going to be in England next month and am hoping to go to Devon, where my ancestors lived. Now I know what to go see there. Jennifer |
