Tresco Abbey

Located 45km southwest of mainland Cornwall, this archipelago of 5 inhabited islands and countless uninhabited ones is a place where the horticulture has a very strong link to the environment.  The sandy soil is very free draining and water is a precious resource coming from storage, boreholes and limited de-salination, so drought tolerance is key. Agapanthus and Aonium are ubiquitous, self seeding into walls and roofs, giving most of the gardens here a carefree and unmanaged charm.  At Tresco Abbey though, the free draining soil and warm winter climate are used to push boundaries and create a garden of unique character.
