| The
climate at Portmeirion is very mild , winter frosts are rare and this has allowed
plantings of tender exotic genera and species in common with many Cornish
gardens. The first plantings, were in early Victorian times. Henry Seymour Westmacott in the late 1850's was responsible for most of these. There are woodland gardens, sub-tropical plants, giant yuccas, palms, tree ferns as well as formal borders. Rhododendrons and Azaleas are one of the main attractions with the peak in May. |
