Mairi Rodgers explores the beauty, history and diversity of some of the finest and most important gardens in the country. As well as enjoying the colours, smells and designs of the gardens, Mairi finds out about the science and conservation work being done at the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh and Logan, the royal history at Floors Castle and Falkland Palace Gardens, wonders at the topiary at Levens Hall in Cumbria and poisonous plants at the Alnwick Garden.

Mairi travels to Kailzie Gardens near Peebles, where she finds out about their historic glasshouses, visits the rose garden, goes on a woodland walk and has a go at catching a trout at the their fishery pond.
Tèarlach Quinnell tells us about the meanings attributed to flowers.
