This week we go outdoors to discuss royal gardens. From the educational and scientific realms of Kew, to The Castle of Mey’s more personal and intimate feel, we look at what makes these gardens so beautiful and discuss their importance when it comes to conservation. This show covers everything from the effects climate change is having on our royal green spaces to King Charles’s involvement at Highgrove. Host Kate Thornton is joined by author of ‘Royal Gardens of the World’ Mark Lane, Head Gardener at Hampton Court Palace and Kensington Palace Graham Dillamore, and Senior Curator at Historic Royal Palaces, Joanna Marschner to discuss all aspects of royal gardens.
In mainland Europe you can journey from the formal splendour of Het Loo in the Netherlands and Fontainebleau in France to the Baroque World Heritage Site of the Royal Palace of Caserta in Southern Italy. Further afield still lies the Taj Mahal in India and the Peterhof Palace in Russia.
Each featured garden will include the history, plantings and evolution of the garden as well as plant portraits of key plants and information about the design and layout of each. Countries included are: England, Scotland, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Austria, the Czech Republic, the Netherlands, Sweden, Denmark, Russia, India, Bali and Japan.
This inspiring global selection of royal gardens is a perfect gift for any gardening enthusiast or armchair traveller and takes the reader on a journey of architecturally significant houses and their classic gardens as well as providing planting ideas that range from modest to grand, simple to ornate.
