2017 International Tour, Europe - Hilliers Nursery & Arboretum
Hillier’s Nursery and Arboretum will be the horticultural focus. Hillier’s have a history dating back to 1864 and produce the famous reference book; Hillier Manual of Trees and Shrubs. They are proud of their worldwide reputation for quality, plantsmanship and innovation. We will then go on to the Sir Harold Hillier Gardens. Harold Hillier was the grandson of the founder of the nursery and began the garden in 1953. It is now managed by Hampshire County Council to a high standard. (photos: HJ Sittig)
