Trewithen garden


An historic private Estate boasting one of the loveliest gardens in England. With its magnificent collection of camellias, rhododendrons and magnolias, its wonderful woodland walks and its heritage family home, Trewithen Gardens are outstanding and internationally famous. Created and extensified by George Johnson, the great glade on the south side is a masterpiece of landscape gardening. Featuring many trees and shrubs brought back from China during the plant hunting expeditions, some are seldom found elsewhere in Britain. Take home a piece of Trewithen… Trewithen Nursery propagates more than 1500 varieties of top quality, and often rare, shrubs, trees and plants, many of which are from the iconic specimens within the garden. They are available for sale throughout the year from the Nursery during the winter season and supply Trewithen’s Plant Centre through the summer. The Plant Centre also stocks a seasonal range of plants supplied from Cornish growers as well as quality garden tools and accessories, locally sourced gifts and Trewithen’s specially commissioned products.
