Better Lawns and Gardens Hour 2 – Coming to you from Summit Responsible Solutions Studios,  Big News!  Teresa announces her next garden tour in Spring 2023! The Best of English Gardens and The Chelsea Flower Show will be May 16th through May 25th, 2023! Nowhere in the world is the passion for horticulture expressed more vividly than in Britain, where gardens have served as inspiration for painters, writers and poets for centuries. From great country estates to miniscule inner-city gardens, the British use their exceptionally long growing season to fullest advantage, and we’ve timed your visit to bring you the best of English gardens. 

This is your invitation to see some of England’s most famous gardens at a time of year when color runs rampant. You will visit the Royal Horticultural Society’s flagship garden at Wisley, Kiftsgate and Hidcote Manor. Royal schedules permitting, you will also take a private tour of King Charles III’s estate at Highgrove. You will explore Christopher Lloyd’s gardens at Great Dixter, that offer innovative ideas set against a backdrop of topiary, mixed borders and natural ponds. Additional highlights include time in the Georgian city of Bath, and visits to many other magnificent gardens, including Sissinghurst, Iford Manor and Stourhead.  

In London you will have a full day at the Chelsea Flower Show. Your tour includes membership in the Royal Horticultural Society so that you may attend on members-only day when the crowds are smaller than on the public days. There will also be free time in

London to explore famous sights, museums and galleries you may wish to visit, from the Tate to the tiny Museum of Garden History.

Come along and join other garden lovers for a stroll through the most impressive English gardens. This trip is a quintessential celebration of springtime.  

Teresa: I would love to have you join me on this wonderful bouquet list (pronounced bucket) adventure!
