Episode 2

Monty Don is in the south of Spain, visiting gardens that show how this part of the country has evolved thanks to influences from visitors and settlers from ancient to modern times.

Monty journeys across the south of the country, from the island of Mallorca to the capital of Andalusia, Seville. Its warm Mediterranean climate and rugged landscape have been a magnet for many, from invaders from north Africa to the holidaymakers of today, helping to shape many of its gardens.

Looking to the future, Monty also visits projects which have tried to mitigate the effects of the tourist boom and the increased challenges brought about by climate change.
