After another hectic week and a few averted disasters along the way, finally success! The Caribbean fishing village is now in situ and it can be visited as part of the stunning Kew Gardens Tropical Extravaganza 2012 from the 5th of February until the 4th of March. This year’s theme is “Forces of Nature’, and the Mangrove installation in the Prince of Wales Conservatory is part of the Water display.
