The man with the greenest fingers in Cyprus

Working alone with Mother Nature, a gardener in Lapithos has made a backyard to marvel at with endemic plants providing a riot of colour. AGNIESZKA RAKOCZY has a look around

Thousands of cyclamens, tulips and anemones welcome visitors to one of the island’s stand-out gardens, the collaborative creation of Mother Nature and the loving hands of Hikmet Ulucam, the well-known Turkish Cypriot graphic designer.
 
Located on the slopes of the Pentadaktylos, that on the day I stopped by overlooked a shining sparkling sea below, this garden is home to more than 70 kinds of flowers, most of them endemic, 16 types of wild orchids, 500 different types of cacti, 22 species of forest trees and 22 varieties of fruit trees.
