Previously under the control of the Isle of Wight council, in May 2012 an 125 year lease for the Ventnor Botanic Garden was signed between John Curtis for VBC CIC and the council.
There'll be a chance to see the new Waterlily open its flowers during midnight tours at the Ventnor Botanic Garden. Well done to Chris for yet another horticultural success.
Friends of the Botanic Garden are being canvassed about proposed entry prices - your constructive feedback would probably be welcomed by the CIC too. Feel free to comment on the article on VB.
