Inverewe is a wonderful garden, created by Osgood MacKenzie a man of vision. He planted thousands of trees as shelter then left the place for thirty years or so. When he came back he brought topsoil from England on barges then began the process of creating his vision of a garden. The garden benefits fully from the gulf-stream and high rainfall, this allows them to grow some really exciting plants.There are huge Tree-ferns and Eucalyptus trees over 100' tall, and many other southern hemisphere plants. There are fantastic Bamboos, Rhododendrons, Azaleas and Magnolias, the list is endless, there is also a fantastic crescent shaped Veg-garden which goes right to the seashore. All this is set in a beautiful west hghland location. Tom
