Monty Don continues his extraordinary journey with a visit to the richest and most powerful nation in the world: the United States of America. There, he meets garden guerrillas who are creating community gardens from derelict land in New York, visits a Virginian garden that reflects the birth of the nation, and finally travels west to California, to see if gardens there reflect more than the glitz of the movie industry. Gardens:
- LongHouse Reserve, East Hampton, NY
- Gantry Plaza State Park, New York (designed by Tom Balsley)
- Liz Christy Garden, Manhatten NY
- James Van Sweden's garden at Ferry Cove, Chesapeake Bay, Maryland
- Monticello, Charlottesville, Virginia
- The Huntington Botanic Garden, San Marino, California
- Lotusland, Montecito, Santa Barbara
- Roland Emmerich's Garden, Hollywood, California
- The Greenberg Garden, Brentwood, Los Angeles (designed by Mia Lehrer)
