Experience the elegance of Italianate garden design during this curated day trip departing from and returning to Longwood Gardens.
Travel first to Ladew Topiary Gardens in Monkton, MD before continuing on to Dumbarton Oaks in Washington DC, exploring formal terraces, sculpted greenery, and classical design elements inspired by the great gardens of Italy. Along the way, we’ll examine layout, proportion, and plant selection that define the Italianate tradition, with lunch included for a relaxed midday break.
