We moved from the West to Camperdown over 20 years ago and suddenly discovered that we had a whole acre to play with. Shortly after moving I joined The Horticultural Society of The Bahamas and there began my passion for gardening.
We had never heard of a Bromeliad or Orchid but it wasn’t long before my addiction for plants began. We started small, built two shade houses along the way, filled them to the brim, and now we have a beautiful garden that we can both enjoy all year round. Every day is filled with surprises when something new comes into bloom. At various times of the year Camperdown is alive with beautiful displays from many of our neighbours who are also avid gardeners.
Gordon and I really look forward to our weekends in the garden; we love the peace and tranquility and we can always find a project to do with all the plants that we have around. We also really enjoy sharing our plants with others as we simply have too many!! But there is always room for something new! We like to encourage our friends to spruce up their yards and gardens by offering plants and advice as to how to grow and care for them.
We have found that gardening gives us so much satisfaction and keeps us active in mind, body and soul.
