Do you have a dream garden Vacation?

by Tricia

Fellow gardeners – Have you ever thought about dream garden related vacations? Where would you love to go to tour botanical gardens or tropical jungle vegetation? Oops I think I just gave away my own dream garden vacation dreams.

Yes, I’d love to go to Costa Rica or similar places and take a jungle tour to see the birds, animals and luscious tropical plants. I’d come away drooling as I’d know that in my cool climate I’d never be able to grow anything like the plants and flowers I’d see on that trip.

Another dream vacation would be to go to England. Probably London England first. I’d want to visit as many Traditional English gardens as I could as well as some of the Royal Botanical gardens. I’m certain that I’d be able to grow some of the plants that I’d see on that trip.

If I’m not mistaken I think London is fairly expensive, well seeing as their pound is more than twice the value of our dollar it is, so I’d be looking for some Cheap Hotels in London . Nothing tacky or dirty – something nice but inexpensive. OMG I’m remembering some of the English movies and series that I’ve seen where you have a room but the washroom, or water closet as they call it, is shared by all of the residents of a floor. Ok so not that kind of London Hotels. Uh huh.

Obviously I haven’t done any research into this at all. I’m sure if I take a trip to England it will be a few years from now. I don’t even know if it would be best to stay in London to see some beautiful gardens or if there is a better area of England where most of the top gardens to visit would be. Perhaps someone could tell me. It wouldn’t hurt to start gathering information for my future dream trip.

Oh and if anyone has been to London – yes it would still be on the agenda even if all of the best gardens are on the other side of England – I’ve gotta see London! Perhaps you could recommend some nice Hotels in London that my husband and I could stay at? Something nice, close to the famous London attractions – but not very expensive.

Would anyone care to tell me what your dream garden vacation would be? Do you favor a particular type of garden? If you do where would you want to go to see the best of your favorite kind of garden?

    I want to do a little self tour of allotment gardens in the UK! And the community garden spaces in Germany too. And even just walking around seeing the balconies and small gardens in the cities. Parks are another favorite. The English Garden in Munich any time of the year. Or stay at a b&b that has its own little kitchen garden. Now is a nice time to dream of summer vacations!
