A WEEK celebrating the award-winning gardens at Hever Castle runs from
June 23 to June 29. Hever in Bloom showcases the gardens at the height of their
summer beauty, with one of the finest displays in Kent, the Garden of England.
Join the gardeners for free daily tours to find out about garden’s history.
The gardening team will be on hand throughout the week to answer questions from
visitors, who will be able to meet the castle’s florist and attend her daily
floral arrangement workshops. Expect some professional tips and tricks of the
trade to try in your own home.
Not to be missed are nostalgic displays of poppies in several bays
along the Pompeiian Wall in The Italian Gardens and around the grounds to
commemorate the centenary of World War One.
Hever Castle’s gardens were laid out between 1904 and 1908 by Joseph
Cheal and Son to display William Waldorf Astor’s unique collection of Greek and
Roman statuary collected while he was the US ambassador in Rome.
