Upon the Gardens of Epicurus: Sir William Temple

"The use of Gardens ... as it has been the inclination of Kings and the choice of Philosophers, so it has been the common favourite of public and private men ; a pleasure of the greatest and the care of the meanest; and indeed an employment and a possession for which no man is too high nor too low."

Britain's show gardens are either privately owned or are under the ownership of The Royal Horticultural Society, English Heritage, the National Trust, the National Trust for Scotland, Cadw, or Historic Scotland. These latter organizations provide free entry to members.
