Another lovely tropical garden in Falmouth, a little way from the seafront near to Falmouth Art College.
Free to access, Robert Fox’s nephew, Howard Fox, bought Rosehill in 1872. He extended the garden and created a Mediterranean planting style, featuring dracaenas, with conifers as a shelter belt. It’s because of his work that what we now call Cornish palms can be seen in so many places across the UK. Visitors used to say that this wasn’t like an English garden, as it featured a banana grove and lemons, oranges and dates flourishing in the open. In 1923, a Daily Mirror article stated that there were 50 banana trees at Rosehill, and some of the leaves measured seven feet.
