What Grew In Victorian Public Parks?
Hi All
I'm asking this on behalf of a friend who is engaged in an art project and
she would like to know what plants would have appeared in Victorian public
parks - well actually in one particular public park (Peel Park in Salford,
opened in 1846). From what I can see the Victorians were keen on colourful
borders but some of you out there might know a lot more and could name a few
plants.
I'll forward replies on to her (she uses e-mail but doesn't know anything
about newsgroups and URG).
TIA
Howard
