The Arboretum’s rosarian Erin Conley had the incredible opportunity to work at a private garden in England from June to September 2022, thanks to a Chanticleer Scholarship. While abroad, she visited 30 gardens in England. Join her on a virtual tour through some of her favorites, including a few of England’s most famous gardens as well as other notable gardens in the English countryside. Besides providing lush images of double borders and the stately and classic English hedges, Erin will highlight what makes an English garden, the influential characters behind these famous gardens, and exciting plants she encountered along the way.
