At Egeskov, you can experience one of Europe’s most extensive collections of fuchsias. The garden contains around 800 different varieties, and while the number is remarkable, the age of the plants is even more so. Many of the fuchsias are more than 50 years old – some nearly 75 years old. This part of the woodland was laid out with circular beds for fuchsias in YEAR so the plants could grow in partial shade beneath the tall trees. Garden design by head gardener Peter Bonde Poulsen.
