About Me


Claire Humphries I am a plant addict with a love of travel. I hope to share the great plants and gardens I get to see.

La Pozas was built by Edward James in East Central Mexico. It took him 40 years to build the follies and garden.


Terra Nostra Botanical Gardens, Azores

Posted by Claire Humphries on Tuesday, February 28, 2012


 Here are some pics from Terra Nostra Botanical gardens on the Azores island of San Miguel. It was lush, green and tranquil with a vast array of tree ferns and animal sculptures. Tree ferns are a wonderful feature in London gardens and enjoy plenty of water and seaweed feed during the growing season. It is probably best to protect the growing part of the fern with straw in winter as they are hardy to about -10 degrees centigrade.
