I love the botanic gardens at Gibraltar and one of the Canary Islands – I think it was Gran Canaria
Money’s garden in Giverny
I would love to visit Monet’s garden in Giverney. I love his paintings, especially those which feature the water lilies and the Japanese Footbridge. I have seen “The Artist’s garden at Giverney” in the wonderful Musee d’Orsay in Paris. Monet said “My garden is my most beautiful masterpiece” and I would really love to see if it is truly still a masterpiece.
Also I have been learning French on Duolingo and need to practice my new skills!
Kew Gardens
wht a wonderful opportunity, thank you
I’d love to visit Monet’s garden at Giverney – it looks so beautiful.

Eden Project as I work in a smaller venue a little like it in South Wales
would love to visit the Eden Project – I lived in Cornwall around 40 years ago, long before the Eden Project so it would be nice to combine that with revisiting my old stomping ground
Kew Gardens, I understand they are marvellous.
The Eden Project then do the parkrun afterwards
We have some amazing gardens in this country but if I had to pick further afield it would be Bermuda Botanical Gardens to enjoy a holiday too!

The Hanging Gardens of Bali near Ubud because of the spectacular location and the opportunity to stay overnight

We love Abbotsbury Gardens in Dorset, Its not far from us and the climb up to the viewpoint is well worth the effort, they also host the Dorset Food and Drink fair, which is all local produce.
The Palace of Versailles garden and the estate of Trianon would be a dream come true.
I’ve love to visit Butchart Gardens on Vancouver Island in British Columbia. It is one of the world’s best gardens and a National Historic Site of Canada. We were planning to visit 15 years ago but never made it and it’s been on my bucket list ever since.
Wisley as always something new to explore
It would have to be a visit to Monet garden in Giverny. For someone who paints and loves the art of the impressionists, this very high on the must see bucket list.
Any garden with a flat walking/pushing walkway to make life easier for my husband to ” take a little
air ” .
I would visit the Monte Palace Gardens on the beautiful volcanic island of Madeira. With the sub tropical climate & year round mild temperatures, this garden grows around 100,000 plant species from across the world. Apart from the lush vegetation Monte Palace Gardens is also home to sculptures & Minerals from around the world, precious & semi precious gems, a collection of tiles, a small museum, artwork, birdlife, fish, & living fossils. Monte Palace is more than just a garden.

I’d love to visit the ‘Lost Gardens of Heligan’ and also The Eden Project.
My wife and I would love to return the gardens at the Alhambra Palace in Granada, Spain. We had a magical day there about eight years ago. A truly special place.
I would like to visit Kew at Christmas all lit up – I have seen Wisley lit up and that was wonderful.
Would love to visit Wisley as we have recently moved from the North of England and would love this to be our fairly local favourite place.
I would love to visit the Chelsea Flower Show and see all the wonderful gardens that are designed for the show and then dismantled. It would soothe my soul and bring such peace.
I have always wanted to visit Wisley
I’d love to return to the Butchart Gardens on Vancouver Island. I went once, it was beautiful but poured with rain all the time. It would be even better to see it in the sunshine. Fingers crossed!
I would love to visit the Three Great Gardens of Japan, I have never been to the country but I love their culture.
Would love to visit Singapore botanical gardens as they are very exotic
Never been to Wisley, so I would nominate this as the garden I would most like to see
Kirsten Bosch would be great as I’ve never been to S. Africa.
We used to live close to Wisley and visited occasionally. It is a lovely place so it would be good to return.

I’ve heard wonderful things about The Poison Garden in Alnwick, and would love to visit.
We visited the Eden Project many years back and would love to take our Grandchildren now they are old enough to appreciate all the beautiful fauna and flora.
Anywhere would be good but walking is limited
I should like to revisit the Eden Project at a different time of the year to that when I went last (winter)
I certainly agree with you. Kew holds some very fond memories for me, and it has been too long since I last had the pleasure of a visit.
Would love to see the Botanical Gardens and tbe Orchids in Singapore
Wisley would be a tremendous place to visit
I would love to visit the botanical gardens in Kyoto Japan
Apart from Wisley I’d love to explore the wonderful Beth Chatto Gardens. From what I’ve seen, It’s stunning at any time of the year. Always something to get your attention.
I would like to go back to Kew as there is always something new to see.
None
Currently keeping an eye on Blossom Watch at Alnwick. Health issues have kept us at home this year, but a day amongst the pure white cherry blossoms could be a real tonic
No question, we would visit Wisley because it is the UK’s most iconic garden.
The Miracle Garden in Dubai…would love to visit again..last went there in 2016…
