Infuse your senses with colour and scent in the sub-tropical gardens of St Michael's Mount basking in the mild climate and salty breeze. Clinging to granite slopes the terraced beds tier steeply down to the ocean's edge, boasting tender exotics from places such as Mexico, the Canary Islands and South Africa, including the Medicago plant that came to the island in the wedding bouquet of the first Lady St Levan.

All entry proceeds from the day go to the National Gardening Scheme charity.
