In the penultimate episode of this globe-trotting series, Monty Don reaches Northern Europe. From the floral wonders of Britain's Sissinghurst castle, to the garden palette of impressionist painter Monet, to the quirky individuality of two of Monty's most admired contemporary designers, he's forced to wonder why this part of the world is so rich in gardening glories, and how we can care for this massive horticultural heritage.Highlights in this episode include: Rousham Park and Sissinghurst in the UK; France's Chateau de Villandry and Monet's Giverny; Het Loo in The Netherlands and the personal retreat of one of Monty's favourite designers in Belgium. And finally, the most northerly botanic gardens in the world.PRODUCTION DETAILS:Executive Producers: Sarah Moors and Richard Sinclair; Series Producer: Kerry Richardson. A BBC Production |
