Villa Hanbury Ventimiglia, Italy is yet another fabulous garden.  Plants from all over the world are able to acclimatise in the shelter afforded by the proximity of nearby mountains, and by the proximity to the sea.  Thomas Hanbury purchased the land, together with the ancient ruins of ‘Palazzo Orengo’ with a fortune acquired in china from training in silk, cotton, tea and property.  It is full of interest: fountains, temples, pavilions, terraces and green ‘rooms’.
