Notability

Latest comment: 17 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

I believe that Harry Dodson easily meets the notability criteria. He was the star of a TV show, the subject of best selling books, and had a long obit in the Independent (see references on page) --Grundoon 17:45, 11 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

1967, not 1982

Per attached obituary (number 2 under "external links") the garden was given to him in 1967.

But, by 1967, the cost of maintaining the garden had become too high for its owner, Lt-Col John Ward. He made it over to Dodson, who ran it as a commercial nursery.
