The Walton Foundation also opens the Giardini La Mortella on Ischia in autumn and winter with guided tours every Thursday at 2:30 pm.
Visitors will be able to discover the garden in a season brimming with color: camellias, bellflowers, flowering rosemary, brightly colored aloes, the last remaining tropical water lilies, and, in the eastern section, Japanese maples and ornamental gingers. The tour offers evocative views of the Bay of Forio and concludes with a breathtaking sunset.
The guides will also explain the history of the founders, the composer William Walton and Lady Susana Walton, the garden's creator.
The 2026 season, starting April 2nd, will be dedicated to the centenary of Lady Walton (1926-2026), with a program of concerts, lectures, and exhibitions in Italy and the United Kingdom.
