A new TV series on spectacular garden design has begun on Sky Arts, initially featuring the remarkable Lowther Castle designed by Dan Pearson.

Six programmes feature six gardens in the UK, all designed by some of the country’s leading garden designers.

The series began on August 2, with Lowther Castle, and continues each week airing at 7pm.

The episodes feature Arabella Lennox-Boyd’s garden at Gregarth Hall on 9 August, Tom Stuart-Smith‘s Hepworth Wakefield Gallery Garden on 16 August, Tania Compton’s garden at Fonthill House on 23 August, Cleve West’s Hortatio’s Garden in Salisbury on 30 August and James Alexander-Sinclair‘s Northamptonshire Garden on 6 September.

The programme can be viewed on Sky channel 130 as well as freeview channel 11 and Freesat channel 147. You can also watch it on NowTV.

Gardens Illustrated has featured several of these gardens in the magazine, including Lowther Castle and Gresgarth Hall. Dan Pearson’s recently reimagined rose garden for Lowther has also just been reopened.
