Ian Hamilton Finlay’s ‘Improvement Garden’ at Stockwood Park, Luton
Kate Harwood will talk about the myths and classical references that inspired The Improvement Garden, laid out by Ian Hamilton Finlay at Stockwood Park, Luton. This magical, Grade II* garden was inspired by both the classical world and the 18th century, but with a distinctive 20th century twist. It is not one of horticultural extravagance but of ideas and subtle hints, blending planting, architecture and sculpture to extraordinary effect.Gardens Trust event.
