Today's video is a walk around the huge palms and exotic planting along the sea front of Torquay on the south coast of England. Styled as 'The English Riviera', the mild climate allows many exotic plants to grow relatively well here and it's amazing to see so many of the rare and unusual plants a lot of UK exotic and tropical style gardeners grow used in public planting schemes. Filmed on a sunny evening on our Torquay holiday, I hope you enjoy walking round some of the spectacular palm specimens and beautiful planting by the sea with me. From huge Phoenix canariensis (Canary Island Date Palms / CIDP) and ubiquitous Cordyline australis through to Yucca rostrata and Mediterranean planting en masse - even Agaves, Butia odorata feather palms and some large Chamaerops humilis Mediterranean Dwarf Fan Palms, there really is an impressive array of exciting planting adding a touch of the exotic to the Marina, sea front and surrounding gardens. Torquay is well worth a holiday or short break away if you like sun and unusual plants here in the UK and I hope you enjoy this quick look!
