Garden Plant Hunters Sue Whigham explores the origins of many popular plant species and how they were discovered I must say that when my son and daughter-in-law announced that they were going to take a sabbatical in the summer of 2019 and, with their daughters aged six and four, travel to Colombia, I initially had alarming visions of dangerous jungle trails, groups of heavily armed FARC rebels and threat of kidnap. I suppose what I was thinking of is what happened to Tom Hart Dyke from Lullingstone Castle and his travelling companion, Paul Winder, back in 2000. They found themselves in the inhospitable jungle of the Darién Gap between Panama and Colombia with Tom following his wild enthusiasm for orchids and Paul in his pursuit of adventure. They were kidnapped by a rebel group and spent nine months in their company. Since then, Tom, a modern day plant hunter, has undertaken many other plant hunting trips, including one to Central Peru in 2009 where he came upon an entire clump of Puya raimondii (Queen of the Andes) flourishing at over 14,000 feet where virtually nothing else grows. This particular bromeliad is on the endangered list in the wild. To see the plant flower must be extraordinary. Some of the flower spikes are over 44ft tall with each producing over 10,000 creamy white flowers. And to cap it all, the flowers are pollinated by hummingbirds. Can you just imagine it? And then, in a chance conversation at a recent meeting of the local Hardy Plant Society, I got talking to a friend who said she was related, she knew not how, to Reginald Farrer who made his name with his book, My Rock-Garden, in 1907. This book kindled a huge interest in alpine plants and rockeries amongst British horticulturalists of the time. She also grows and loves alpine plants so it must be in the genes. Reginald was born in 1880 in Clapham, North Yorkshire, and was heir to the estate of Ingleborough Hall where some of his plant introductions are still to be found. He was seen as an eccentric and somewhat difficult man but his scope of exploration and search for, in particular, alpine plants which started in the European Alps led to expeditions further east taking in, amongst others, countries such as Japan and Korea, Ceylon (now Sri Lanka) as well as two forays into China. I spotted one of his introductions from China, Viburnum farreri (fragrans) in full fragrant flower at the weekend. I like the story of him wanting to replicate a plant covered rock face that he’d spotted in Ceylon. He rowed out onto a Above: In 1495 BC Egyptian pharaoh, Queen Hatshepsut, commissioned an expedition to Somalia in search of incense trees, Commiphora myrrha 107 surrey-homes.co.uk
