"The British obsession with gardening has fascinating roots: the Empire and trade
across the globe created a fascination with exotic new plants, and showed the power
and reach of Britain in the early eighteenth century. At that time, national influence
wasn't measured by sporting success, musical or artistic influence. Instead it was
expressed in the design of parks and gardens such as Kew and Stowe, and the style
of these grand gardens was emulated first throughout Britain and then increasingly
around the world. This is a story of three original thinkers, starting with the Georgian
prince whose patronage made it all possible"
