Biddulph Grange Gardens
Cook was interested in not only the stones but also to plants. In 1840, he began to help his friend, gardener James Batman in setting up the famous gardens of Biddulph Grange in Staffordshire, so much so carried away that as a result of all the orchids and rhododendrons this garden was designed and planted them.
I must say that Cook was not only an artist and gardener, but a scientist. He was a member of the Linnean Society, the Geological Society and the Society of antiquity. In 1863 he was elected to the Royal Society, and even became an academician in 1864.
