Episode description

Join us a stroll through Sheringham’s magnificent rhododendron gardens as we unearth the colourful history of these exotic flowers, from the adventures of the plant hunter who sourced them to their starring role in the Upcher family’s 1950s champagne parties.

Learn about the designer who sculpted the landscape, Humphry Repton, and meet the staff and volunteers who keep his vision alive today.
