Every year thousands of visitors go to the garden of Inverewe, 84 miles due west of Inverness. Its fame and popularity would astonish Osgood Mackenzie, who began it in 1862 when there was only a peninsula of almost barren rock, open to Atlantic gales and salt spray. The author's late husband looked after the garden for the National Trust of Scotland, and his notes are the basis for this book. Cowan describes its development, makes lists of the principal trees, shrubs and other plants and their origin, and devotes a chapter to the many interesting and unusual variety of rhododendrons.
