In addition, the British Ambassador to Austria, Lindsay Skoll, is expected to highlight the importance of England as a garden country, as on Jardin.senat.fr is reported.

Karl Ploberger and the fascination of private gardens

Ploberger explains that private gardens have a special appeal because you can feel the passion of their owners. He has visited over 500 gardens worldwide and is fascinated by the diversity and creativity he encounters. “It is the love of nature that unites garden lovers,” emphasizes Ploberger. The highlights of his travels include gardens in Germany, Dominica, England, France, Italy, Luxembourg, Spain and South Africa. For example, the Karl Foerster Garden in Potsdam, known for its seasonally changing beauty, has often been described as the most visited private garden in Germany.

The anniversary show promises a celebration of colors and shapes: the gardens presented are not only a homage to the art of gardening, but they also reflect the cultural background. For example, Claude Monet's famous water lily garden in Giverny, which was carefully restored in the 1980s and has regained its original splendor. These and other exquisite gardens will be chosen on February 11th, to the surprise of the audience. Ploberger calls on viewers to design their gardens personally and to try out the unusual to create a completely individual living space.
