David, the fern is Adiantum aleuticum from North America. Deciduous in winter but fully hardy in the UK. |

Red Hot Poker. Yes, looks like Kniphofia caulescens to me And they do tend to do that. Die at the base and fall over. But mine never re-root like that. |

One of my favourite gardens. Inspirational. Incidentally, the garden with succulents is 'The Desert Wash' - the 'Mediterranean Garden' is another bit. Or, at least, it was unless they renamed it. I remember going to the opening do when there were very few plants - you could see how beautifully they had graded the stones and contoured the landscape to imitate a desert wash and the biggest feature then was the 'stegosaurus' bridge. |

Kev.... sorry late to the party. Wow what a post. The Xeric area is amazing. I could spend a whole day there Trying to get my head around what those two tall Nolina were. Could they be hibernica? Thanks for taking the time and effort Kev and on a nice hot day forecast I must make a trip there |

We did mention your name as we walked round thinking you might like the spikies.....surprised to see such an array of plants the Euphorbia made a nice foil for the whole area this plant grows in such difficult places. In Lanzarote it is somtimes the only plant growing in the black rock lava fields something I cannot replicate as here it would out grow my yucca's in an instant. |

Impressive place. Thanks for taking the time to take, process and upload all these images. It looks like you had a good time and a frolic on the beach to boot. Who was babysitting Andy? |
