Bunny meets Her Grace The Duchess of Rutland, Emma, in the gardens at Belvoir Castle.
There has been a castle at Belvoir since 1066. Emma, moved into the castle with her husband 23 years ago, and has helped run the castle, restore the gardens, and finish carrying out Capability Brown’s scheme to the original plans, which have recently been discovered.
See the newly planted Rose Garden (in its first flowering year), the private terraces where the Emma is going to plant lots of Dahlias for late summer colour, and hear why the 5th Duke disapproved of his wife commissioning Harold Peto to create the Italian inspired terrace gardens in the 1920’s.
For a longer conversation with the Duchess, talking about her life and her gardens, listen to Bunny’s podcast ‘Bunny in the Garden with… ‘ Emma, The Duchess of Rutland.
