Biddulph Grange Gardens
This amazing Victorian garden was created by James Bateman for his collection of plants from around the world. A visit takes you on a global journey from Italy to the pyramids of Egypt, a Victorian vision of China and a re-creation of a Himalayan glen.
The garden features collections of rhododendrons, summer bedding displays, a stunning dahlia walk in late summer and the oldest surviving golden larch in Britain, brought from China in the 1850s.

Spectacular Spetchley Park Gardens - Worcestershire Attractions
Spetchley Park Gardens are large and interesting gardens that can hold your interest for several hours. There is a lake with adjacent arboretum, formal gardens, numerous water features and walled gardens. The compartmentalised design of the gardens means a surprise awaits you around every corner. The Berkeley family have owned Spetchley Park for over 400 years, but I believe the gardens date mainly from the Victorian era.
On the day that I shot this video, I think the garden must have been just about at its peak. Everything seemed to be in full bloom! An amazing day.
Bodnant Garden, Wales, UK - National Trust
This is a short visit to Bodnant Garden in August 2010. Nice place to take it easy and chill out!!
Bodnant Garden is a National Trust property in Tal-y-Cafn, in the county of Conwy, Wales. Bodnant Garden is situated above the River Conwy and overlooks the valley towards the Carneddau range of mountains.
This important garden occupies an area of over 80 acres surrounding Bodnant House, most of which was first laid out by Henry Davis Pochin, a successful industrial chemist, from 1874 onwards until his death in 1895. Bodnant House had been built in 1792 but was remodelled by Pochin and on his death it was inherited by his daughter (whose husband became the first Baron Aberconway in 1911). The garden, but not the House or other parts of the estate, was presented to the National Trust, with an endowment, in 1949. The House was the home of the late Lord Aberconway, and members of his family continue to be actively involved in the management of the garden, its tea pavilion and car parks on behalf of the National Trust.
The gardens are varied and include formal gardens bounded by clipped box hedges, ornamental ponds and pools and formal herbaceous borders, an enclosed laburnum arch and many rose gardens. However, Bodnant is most famous for its breeding programme, especially of varieties of Rhododendrons and azaleas examples of which are now grown throughout the world.
Begun in 1875, it is the creation of four generations of Aberconways and is divided into two parts: the upper level (around the house) features huge Italianate terraces, specimen trees and formal lawns, with paths descending to at lower level The Dell with a wooded valley, stream and wild garden below. Included within the Dell are the Old Mill, the mill pond with the mill race and an attractive spillway waterfall into the River Hiraethlyn, to give the delightful babbling brook through the Dell its proper name.
Woodland garden at BodnantOf the many specimen trees within the Dell and the Woodland, notable are several Californian Redwoods including Sequoiadendron giganteum planted in 1886.
