The Abbotsbury Subtropical Gardens is a visitor attraction near the village of Abbotsbury, Dorset, southern England. They are Grade I listed in the National Register of Historic Parks and Gardens. The garden originates in 1765. In the late eighteenth century, the Fox-Strangeways family (the Earls of Ilchester) built a new house on the location; when it was burnt down in 1913, they returned to their family seat at Melbury House, but the walled garden was maintained—it remains in the ownership of the family. Since then, particularly after the contributions of the 4th Earl of Ilchester, the gardens have developed into an 8 hectares (20 acres) site with exotic plants, many of which were newly discovered species when they were first introduced. There are formal and informal gardens, with woodla

  • Subtropická zahrada v Abbotsbury (anglicky: Abbotsbury Subtropical Gardens) je botanická zahrada a turistická atrakce v blízkosti vesnice , Dorset, jihozápadní Anglie. Zahrada je vedena v Národním registru historických parků a zahrad (National Register of Historic Parks and Gardens). Zahrada pochází z roku 1765. Koncem 18. století rodina Fox-Strangeways (hrabata z Ilchestru) postavila nový dům, který v roce 1913 vyhořel. Rodina se pak vrátila do rodinného sídla v Melbury. Zámecká zahrada zůstala ve vlastnictví rodiny a je stále udržována. Rozrostla se na 8 ha zvláště přispěním 4. hraběte z Ilchestru a díky úsilí horlivého botanika Williama Fox-Strangwayse byla osázena v té době mnoha nově objevenými druhy exotických rostlin. Zahrada se rozkládá na ploše cca 15 ha. V roce 1912 měla více než 5000 exemplářů různých druhů rostlin. Zahrada se člení na zahrady formální i neformální, některé ohrazené, a jsou tam i lesy s pěšinami. Navíc se dělí na zóny, ve kterých jsou rostliny z různých zeměpisných oblastí. Zahrady se nacházejí v zalesněném chráněném údolí, které vede k moři k pláži Chesil (Chesil Beach) a jímž protéká potok. V údolí se vytváří mikroklima, v němž se daří teplomilnějším rostlinám, než jaké se v jižní Anglii obvykle pěstují, a které by jinak musely být ve skleníku. Navzdory příznivé poloze bývají rostliny vystaveny tuhým zimám a mrazu; například v roce 1990 silné bouře poškodily mnoho vzácných exemplářů. Potok, přes který vede šest mostů, spojuje tři rybníky: Horní, Střední a Dolní. V roce 2010 umělec Matthew Crabb z dvě stě let starého dubu, který se v roce 2009 vyvrátil pod náporem silných větrů, vyřezal skulpturu plastik (hon na lišku). V roce 2012 zahrada získala ocenění Historic Houses Association/Christie’s Garden. (cs)

Since then, particularly after the contributions of the 4th Earl of Ilchester, the gardens have developed into an 8 hectares (20 acres) site with exotic plants, many of which were newly discovered species when they were first introduced. There are formal and informal gardens, with woodland walks and walled gardens; in addition, the gardens also contain certain "zones" that exhibit plants from different geographical areas. The gardens are in a wooded and sheltered valley, leading down towards the sea at Chesil Beach; this combination produces a microclimate in which more delicate plants than are usually grown in southern England can flourish, and plants that would otherwise need a greenhouses can be grown outside. However, in spite of its location, the plants remain vulnerable to bad winters, and the frost that they can bring; in 1990, violent storms damaged many of the rare specimens, which have since been replaced by younger plants. In 2010, Abbotsbury employed the chainsaw artist Matthew Crabb to carve a 200-year-old oak tree that had fallen after a particularly bad winter. The gardens won the Historic Houses Association/Christie’s Garden of the Year award for 2012, the first time that a subtropical garden has gained the award. (en)
