Eden on Gardener's world blog

Thank you to Joe Swift who has written a lovely review of Eden on his blog today. Joe, a presenter on Gardener's World has blogged on the BBC website about his experiences filming the Gardener of the Decade programme at Eden recently.

Joe says "I've been to Eden twice before.... I have to say, it is now seriously mature both inside the biomes and outside too. The tropical biome is just so authentic I really thought I was back in the jungle of South East Asia, where I spent some time in my early twenties. Overall it looked absolutely amazing and is maintained to an extremely high standard, and packed full of inspiring planting. I just wish I'd planned another day at the end to look around more, but I had to get back to London. If you ever get a chance to go, take it, and if you've been before but haven't been for a while then go again as it's changed a lot."
