I've just updated my website to include details of a very exciting tour I am running next April.

Earlier this year, I took the First Lady of Ohio and her fundraising group on a tour of Tuscan gardens, and it was such a lovely tour in every respect that I've decided to run a version of it next year.

We'll be based in Fiesole, in the Etruscan hills just north of Florence, and will visit private and iconic gardens from the Renaissance to the 20th century. The tour is fully inclusive and takes place from 24th-29th April. Have a look here for full details http://www.amandapatton.co.uk/italian-gardens-tour-2015/

It will be a small group so don't delay if you'd like to come!

I guided a tour of Cotswold gardens last week for Cotswold Walks; more on that later; but on the way home I visited a garden I made near there that I haven't seen for a few years. The light was lovely so I thought you might like to see some photos!

Interviewed a lovely couple in California yesterday for a Homes and Gardens feature, during it I said I loved Bernard Trainor's work and sent him a link, bless him, he replied, "its very good, .but I am sorry, I like yours more for sure" - lovely man!
