The garden began in 1898 when cotton magnet Bulley, began gardening with plants and seed collected by George Forrest. The garden extrends across 60 acres, protected by extensive shelter belts. There are extensive Sorbus, azaleas, rhododenrons and heather collections, as well as a charming pottager garden.

This placement will offer plenty of opportunity to study how a botanic garden manages its collections.
