The greater Philadelphia area boasts some of the most outstanding gardens in the United States. Join Pacific Horticulture June 3 – 9, 2018 for an inside look at historic gardens, exceptional nurseries, and private landscapes rarely open to the public.

Our itinerary includes visits to estate gardens founded on fabulous wealth and a historic garden pre-dating American Independence, as well as a collection of delightful personal gardens. At Longwood Gardens we’ll attend the fabulous fountain show in the Italian-style outdoor theater. And we’ll enjoy a docent-led tour of Chanticleer, a pleasure garden that’s been called the most romantic, imaginative, and exciting public garden in America (image below from www.pyours.com). The Scott Arboretum at Swarthmore College , Brandywine Cottage, Meadowbrook Farm, and many more sites will be included. PHS board member Sue Goetz will escort this tour. Your hotel is the Wyndham Philadelphia Historic District, in the heart of the historic Old City.
