Synopsis

The Veitch family were distinguished horticulturalists for two centuries, having influence on gardening, botany, and the wider landscape throughout the British Isles and beyond. From 1832, nursery owner James Veitch sent pioneering plant collectors across the world, including William and Thomas Lobb, Richard Pearce and Charles Maries. Find the famous plants they collected, explore their stories and discover the Devon Veitch legancy.
