Top garden designer hosts garden tour

11/02/2010

Award-winning garden designer Julian Dowle is to launch a series of garden tours, it has been reported. The green-fingered expert, who is best known as a Chelsea Flower Show garden designer, will show gardening enthusiasts around a garden in the Cotswolds, Horticulture Week reported. Launching the garden visits, Mr Dowle will give a tour of a privately owned Japanese garden, which he designed, accompanied by a Japanese tea ceremony. The private Japanese garden is located in the grounds of the Farncombe Estate, home to the Dormy House Hotel, the publication said. People on the tours, which cost £450, will visit the gardens of Sudeley Castle, Kiftsgate and Sezincote. Julian Dowle, who has won 11 Best in the Show gold gilt medals at the Chelsea Flower Show, as well as three People's Choice Awards, also showed guests around the Japanese garden last year. Visitors were also treated to a special lesson in Japanese pruning and a question and answer session with the garden designer. Make the most of your garden with our garden prize offers.
