Autumn Tree Tour with Brian Cunningham
We are delighted to announce an Autumn Tree Tour with Brian Cunningham, our Head Gardener here at Scone Palace, on Saturday 7th November 2026.
After a hearty Scottish Breakfast, Brian will lead a tour of the palace grounds focusing on the heritage of our tree and shrub collection including the Douglas Fir and David Douglas’ connection to Scone Palace, the Victorian Pinetum containing many exotic conifers and the design layout of the gardens. Along the way, he will point out the many trees which have been planted by royalty and visiting dignitaries over the years.
The tour will also include the new development within the walled garden where our gardeners have been busy planting an orchard which includes training, shaping, and pruning the fruit trees and creating an ornamental hedge which appears to grow on stilts.
The tour is limited to only 20 people. Tickets cost £27.50 per person and includes a full Scottish Breakfast with Brian at 9.30am followed by the tour itself which is expected to last for approximately two hours, with the day finishing at about 12.15pm. We expect tickets to sell very quickly, so to avoid disappointment, please book yours asap.
