The enys" target="_blank">Enys family have lived at enys" target="_blank">Enys, which lies on the northern outskirts of Penryn, Cornwall, since the reign of Edward I, according to the website of the enys" target="_blank">Enys Trust. The 1709 edition of Camden's Magna Britannia mentioned that enys" target="_blank">Enys was noted for its fine gardens.




The House and garden


The enys" target="_blank">Enys Trust was formed in 2002 as a charity in order to secure the long-term future of the garden at enys" target="_blank">Enys, near Penryn in Cornwall, and to open the garden to the public. In 2013 the house was opened to the public for the first time.
John enys" target="_blank">Enys greatly enriched enys" target="_blank">Enys with seeds and plants he regularly sent home from New Zealand and Patagonia.
The lakes in the lower valley have a water wheel which raised water to the house. The scenery created here has been much photographed over the years. In Spring the bluebells in the parkland, known as Parc Lye, are a sight to behold. This area is believed to be undisturbed since ancient times, and contains many trees of a great age. The formal gardens still contain plants shrubs and trees from the J D enys" target="_blank">Enys Collection, and the Estate also has a fine collection of bamboos comprising a number of very rare varieties.
Probably the most valuable asset to the garden is its microclimate. It is virtually frost free, and this, together with the mild and temperate influence of the Gulf Stream, enables many tender plants and trees to flourish. One of the most important of these is the "Peruvian Laurel", one of the few specimens growing in England today. There is also a Maidenhair tree, (Ginkgo biloba) which is said to be the tallest specimen outside Kew Gardens.
