Brian Pitcher (a former "KEW Student" who helped build the world-famous and much loved "Kew Waterlily House" in the 1960s and who is now a "Patron of KEW" spoke fondly of our KEW visit on 25 July 2015: " .... Carlos Magdalena, what a charming man, it's a delight to meet a young man so full of enthusiasm for his career and his passion for water lilies. Then what a joy being with Eleonora Giuliodori ("Kew ON A Plate Kitchen Gardener"), she could not have done more for us and such a bubble character. When you look back on our time together we were of five different nationalities and all got on so WELL together (If only our world was like this respecting our cultures and living in peace with one another) ..... "
