Monday, July 6 - Depart U.S. for London (-)Tuesday, July 7 - Arrival at London’s Heathrow International

Airport, shuttle to hotel. Independent fl exible time. (-)Wednesday, July 8 - Following a brief meet & greet and

introduction to the course, we’ll board our motorcoach and head north to Chatsworth, a landscape representing the styles of three centuries. Later, we continue on to Harrogate in North Yorkshire. (B,D)

Thursday, July 9 - The scenic and rugged Lakes District is our destination for this day, including a visit to the world famous topiary garden at Levens Hall. We’ll enjoy lunch overlooking Coniston Water. (B,L)

Friday, July 10 - A contemporary garden designed by Piet Oudolf, located in a historic context at Scampston Hall, is our morning’s activity. Later, we’ll enjoy a completely new garden creation at the Breezy Knees Nursery which will immerse us in a luxurious plant palette. (B,L)

Saturday, July 11 - Studley Royal is one of the 17th century’s fi nest English Landscape Gardens, with its strong emphasis on formalized water. Our morning visit will include exploring the ruins of an 11th century Cistercian monastery, Fountains Abbey, that serves as a terminating focal element in the garden plan. Later, you’ll have free time to explore Harrogate. Perhaps visit, on your own, the nearby RHS Harlow-Carr or the Valley Gardens. (B)

Sunday, July 12 - Today, we’ll experience Castle Howard, a seminal example of the evolution of landscape style on a grand scale at the end of the 16th century featuring design work by the architect Vanbrugh and implementation by the builder Hawksmoor. Later, we pay a visit to York Gate Garden, a petite gem of a late 20th century residential garden. (B,D)

Monday, July 13 - We say farewell to Yorkshire and as we move toward Wales, we’ll have fun at the eclectic, Victorian-era Biddulph Grange Garden, including visits to “China” and “Egypt” and the “stumpery”, followed by a stop at David Austin Roses, home of the modern English rose. Our country hotel near Shrewsbury is our evening’s destination. (B, D)

Tuesday, July 14 - After several days of “go-going” we’ll have this day to rest, walk the countryside, and explore Shrewsbury, a medieval town that is Darwin’s birthplace. (B,D)

Wednesday, July 15 - Bodnant Garden, in northwest Wales is our destination on this day. Its robust plant collections, deep cool valley and trails, and the beautiful views of Snowdonia will give us a full day of feast for the eyes. (B,L)

Thursday, July 16 - On the border between England and Wales is Powis Castle, our day’s destination. Well known for its plant-rich terraces and informal mounded yew hedges, it holds much more in store for the garden lover and historian. Later, we’ll move over to our new hotel near Coventry. (B,D)

Friday, July 17 - On this day, we step way back in history to Tudor times as we enjoy Robert Dudley’s garden made for the fi rst Queen Elizabeth, authentically re-created at Kenilworth Castle, set amid the castle ruins. Then, to conclude our garden adventure, we leap forward to modern organic gardening at Ryton Gardens where we enjoy our farewell meal together. Later, we’ll return to our Heathrow hotel to prepare for tomorrow’s fl ight home or a continuation of travels. (B,L)

Saturday, July 18 - Transport on your own. (B)
