June Blake is a passionate plantsperson who grows from seeds sourced from all over the world. She uses her own extensive garden to grow and trial these plants. Her home is a quaint listed Victorian Steward’s house located in the old cut granite farmyard of Tinode House. The gardens are surrounded by majestic old beech and chestnut trees and in this sheltered environment she grows a unique mix of bamboos, ornamental grasses and perennials. Many of these plants are for sale in her nursery.
