This week on The Horti-Culturalists we were very lucky to visit the wild garden of two passionate plant collectors not far from Stephen's garden. And though quite close in distant, quite different in climate! It's an incredible experience because as the owners are the first to point out, it's not a 'garden'! It's a wild space with minimal intervention where things are planted and basically have to fend for themselves! At every turn there are incredibly rare plants thriving in this classic Mediterranean climate so in this video we'll take a look at ten unusual plants that that leapt out at us....but there's so much more, including a very comprehensive oak collection, that we'll definitely be back! So thank you Barry & Ruth for letting us wander around all day and sharing your incredible collection!
