I've been asked by the people at Pillnitz if we know of the Mile End
Nurseries in London. I can't find any mention of them but wonder if anyone
else knew of them?
The manager of the Pillnitz garden says that this famous Camellia very
probably came from a tree nursery near London called Mile End. Apparently,
a gardener from that nursery became a gardener to the Queen of Naples.
