Maybe she is no real looker , but she was a gardener! I visited Burton House Garden, Tenbury Wells, Worcs (Treasures of Tenbury) last week. Nice garden, excellent plant centre but I was disappointed that, holding a National Collection of clematis, there were not more to be seen. Got chatting to the Head Gardener, Graham Bachman (I think) and he was talking about the TV presenters who have been there. He said R de T was a real gardener, knew her plant names and could hold a conversation. I think Sarah Raven is good too. Maybe we could have them both. The guy also was impressed by Geoffrey Smith and Nigel Colbourne. He also pushed the point that he does garden talks. He seemed a nice bloke and I'm sure would be a good speaker. He charges about £40 plus mileage. I asked him if John Treasure was still about. "Yes, he's under a stone in the Churchyard" was his reply! Pam in Bristol |
