Information
------------------------------

Monty Don visits some of the most famous and interesting gardens in France.


1) Gardens of Power and Passion
Monty tells the stories behind Frances important historic gardens. These include elaborate walled gardens designed to please the mistress - and then the wife - of a king, magnificent displays of flowers and fountains that involved thousands of soldiers moving tracts of land and incited violent jealousy in another monarch, and a modern-day chateau garden that came close to bankrupting its owner. Monty sees how throughout history the French have used gardens as a public expression of money, power and passion.

2) The Gourmet Garden
Monty turns to the French love of food and finds out how this has influenced their gardens. Monty travels to some of the most famous potager or kitchen gardens, where vegetables and flowers are planted together in elaborate and beautiful displays. He talks to gardeners about this style of planting which has been copied the world over. He also visits allotments, learns to pick asparagus, enjoys some of the best produce from the land and learns about the importance the French attach to the soil.

3) The Artistic Garden
Monty turns to Frances famous artistic tradition to see what influence it has had on the countrys gardens. Monty travels to some of the most celebrated artists gardens, including the one created by the impressionist Claude Monet, who planted and painted his garden for half his life. Monty also matches the paintings to the garden of Paul Cezanne, as well as visiting several contemporary artistic gardens to see how the use of plants and trees has evolved into new and varied styles.
