On the Isle of Wight visitors can watch the garden and wildlife begin to grow amidst the sunny climbs of the area. Located at St. Lawrence, which is found near the Island’s southern tip, where the climes are close to the equators in comparison to London, especially as the land starts to tip down, which gives the sun the perfect angle in order to warm up the soil for growth, making it the perfect location for an exotic wildlife garden.

At this point, the garden area is in a stage of maintenance with recent cutting, clearing, and mowing clearly evident to anyone who checks it out. During this time of year, the pampas grass is pruned down to resemble a hedgehog and seedlings are starting to sprout out from underneath the lawn which is proof that at one point the area was host to a numerous amount of trees although now all you can see are stumps.

However, the real reason to venture out to this area of the Isle of Wight is the quiet refuge of the sea, warm sun, and the breathtaking sea views from atop the mountain hill. Of course, with the weather has come plenty of fair weather wildlife including bees, butterflies, and other insects that are starting to peak out from their hibernation, as well as migrating birds returning for the summer.
