Cornish hotel garden
We're just back from a few days at the lovely Nare hotel in
Veryan-in-Roseland and have greatly admired their garden. I'm hoping someone from Cornwall can explain to me how on earth they grow a flourishing garden just feet above a very wide, long bay and with no shelter belt! Most of it is open to the wind that surely must blow in there in winter. Or is there something magical about winds avoiding that area?! We can understand that it's mild enough for Agaves to flourish outdoors but would have expected most/many things to be shredded regularly. Apparently not! -- Sacha www.hillhousenursery.com South Devon |

Who is Sandra Hubbard? Why is she using Sacha's sig? Is she related to Sacha? A suspicious person might interpret the post as being thinly disguised spam on behalf of a certain Cornish south coast hotel. Is it? No! It's a genuine question! We kept looking at this great garden display and wondering "how do they do that?" In an earlier post here I did say we'd be going to Cornwall but I rarely - as in 'never - advertise our actual absences! -- Sacha www.hillhousenursery.com South Devon |

Of course, it's almost certain that there are many Sandra Hubbards in this world, but in view of the context, it is unlikely that you are one of them. Sorry - what on earth are you talking about? Are you saying I have no right to use the email address "sandra.hubbard " Seeing that Goggle says that there are 140,000 references to it, then an explanation would be nice. Has someone registered it as their personal email address? |
