Garden Tours in the Tokaj Wine Region – work in progress

,
Did you know how many interesting gardens and plant collections already exist in the Tokaj Wine Region? An incredible number already - watch this space as we discover them, collect them and bring them here so you can find them and plan your perfect garden tour! Most are private but many can be visited by prior arrangement.Here are a few places you can visit to find small patches of interesting and unusual plants, from rose and lavender gardens to collections of old grape varieties, local almond varieties and herb gardens. Plants with poems and prose next to them, immortalised in the written word. Permaculture gardens where plants live in symbiosis with their neighbours and the natural world. The list is sure to extend in coming years. As we move towards vegetable and fruit tourism!
