Monty Don's Italian Gardens

Florence

Season 1 - Episode 259:00 Add to Watchlist

Monty Don is on a grand tour around Italy, this time visiting gardens both in Florence and around the sun scorched Tuscan countryside. Monty discovers how like a piece of sculpture, renaissance gardens were created as works of art and how a group of spicy Edwardian ex-pats mistakenly reinforced the idea that formal Italian gardens were flowerless.
