Croatia’s Adriatic coast hides a garden story shaped by stone, sea, history, and survival. Monty Don travels from Trieste into Croatia, visiting Miramare Castle, iris nurseries, Opatija’s historic parks, ancient olive groves on Pag, Plitvice Lakes, Šibenik’s monastery garden, the floating gardens of the Neretva, Dubrovnik, Trsteno Arboretum, and the island of Lopud. Along the way, he discovers how Croatian land has long been tied to food, and how a new culture of gardens for beauty and pleasure is beginning to grow.
