The opening of a huge new garden centre in Darwin by an eccentric Pommie businessman is expected to start a fierce price war among Top End nurseries. Head of the venture is mystery millionaire , Basil Fawlty, who made his fortune running a chain of friendly holiday hotels throughout the UK. Mr Fawlty sold up his business after his wife, Sybil, eloped with a German World War 11 veteran with a wooden leg .
Mr Fawlty was advised to invest in the Northern Territory after being told about the fabulous Territory lifestyle . He has sunk millions of dollars into a huge garden centre called Fawlty Flowers which will open at Humpty Doo in the near future. In an exclusive interview with Little Darwin , Mr Fawlty this morning revealed he will be bringing his head gardener , a Spaniard , Manuel, and his pet hamster, to Darwin. Mr Fawlty outlined his grand plan to turn the Top End nursery industry upside down and also revealed his secret recipe for making compost out of health inspectors.
