“Gardens of The World“ with Audrey Hepburn, “Tulips and Spring Bulbs“ 8/8

A documentary television series from 8 parts “ A focus on spring blossoms and their inspiration as art and in the garden“ Audrey Hepburn unfurls the remarkable story of the queen of spring flowers, the “exquisitely simple” tulip – its influence intertwined through centuries with the history and art of her native Holland. Fine and rare tulip specimens share the stage with fritillaria, hyacinth, muscari and narcissus – planted en masse, in mixed plantings, and naturalistically in spring meadows or woodland settings. Gardens Featured: Het Loo Palace, Hortus Bulborum, and Keukenhof, in Holland; Chenies Manor and Garsington Manor, in England.
