To the Romans gardens were an essential part of the house, from the small window box in the apartment to the huge estates of the elite in their summer retreats, gardens and greenery were seen as another room in your house and plants were an essential part of the furniture. Over 10 weeks we will explore some of the ideas and designs and how the Romans combined growing food, decorative planting and the wider landscape in their gardens.<\/p>\n
