If you think gardens are boring, you've clearly never clapped eyes on the fantastical creations unveiled at the Hampton Court Palace Flower Show, which opens on 3 July. From floating Thai markets featuring boats crammed with colourful flowers to Legoland gardens, from topiary sculptures that look like modern-day Michelangelos to gardens masquerading as living rooms, it's more than just pretty blooms.
Here are 12 other amazing gardens around the world, which channel the visionary spirit of our very own flower show.

My favourite is the French gardens. I have visited the countryside of France and seen the outstanding gardens in various areas. They still are so romantic to walk through on a warm summers night. Serene and beautiful. They have also preserved their history in the form of buildings and bridges..I have been to Hampton Court and although the Palace is gorgeous the gardens looked like nothing on a very cold, windy and rainy day. I challenged my daughter to go through the maze, even though it was peeeeing down. It was smaller than what I expected it to be.
