Spring, and a list of British gardens to see

Paul Heymont 2/24/242:00 PM

It's still February and gardens may not be on everyone's mind yet, but the groundhog has given hope of early spring and glorious green and other colors. Ahead of that, the Guardian (UK) has come up with a list of a dozen suggestions for those in range of a visit.

The choices, spread across the UK, range from a sunken fern garden to an 18th-century orangery, and from carefully-tended beds to almost jungle-like profusion. The list follows, along with a link to the Guardian's article.

Castle Howard, North Yorkshire
Borde Hill, West Sussex
RHS Hyde Hall, Essex
Pensthorpe, Norfolk
Eltham Palace, London
Seaton Deleval Hall, Northumberland
Winterbourne House, Birmingham
Attadale Gardens, Wester Ross
Dunham Massey, Greater Manchester
Lost Gardens of Heligan, Cornwall
Penrhyn Castle, Gwynedd
Glenarm Castle, County Antrim
