点评:My visit to Green island gardens was on a sunny Autumn day with some lingering snow on the ground. I was welcomed by Fiona herself and the 20 acre site exlplained to me. I was followed into the woodlands by one of the sites chocolate labradors; the acer's were beautiful bronzes, yellows and reds and some of the National collection of Camellias were in flower - beautiful. I followed this by a walk around the various gardens, including the Japanese & Fairy gardens. As a passionate tree geek, it was perfect for me to see the many deciduous trees in various states of hunkering down for the winter and the hamamelis and rhododendrons bursting with buds. I am so looking forward to my next visit to see the spring blossoms. I finished my visit with a long hunt through the extensive nursery and left with a lovely acer. The whole site was very easy to navigate and all of the staff were very helpful. I'd wholeheartedly recommend Green Island Gardens to anyone who wants a tranquil walk around the site in beautiful surroundings. Thank you Fiona and Team (and the chocolate labrador).
