Osgood Mackenzie began planting Inverewe in 1862 on a bare, windswept headland by Loch Ewe, and the warmth of the North Atlantic Drift let him raise plants that have no business growing this far north — rhododendrons, eucalyptus, even Tasmanian tree ferns. Now run by the National Trust for Scotland, the garden sits just north of Poolewe and is open for most of the year. There’s a visitor centre and cafe, and an admission charge.
