    I am a nephew of Mrs. Lort-Phillips. My late mother was her sister, Judy, who, like Aunt Vi, was nee St. Aubyn, of Cornwall. I would like your readers to know that my brother, Tim (helped by Mrs. Mayda Reynolds) organised the planting of a Magnolia wilsoni at the Durrell memorial park to honour our aunt who played a leading part in the landscaping. Friends and relations oversubscribed so much to the Magnolia Fund that a considerable sum was passed to the park.
