The historic Pinetum at Painshill Park showcased Charles Hamilton's pioneering work in introducing American trees and shrubs to English gardens, providing a unique botanical backdrop for Bridgerton's outdoor scenes. This specialized collection forms part of the John Bartram Heritage Collection of American Trees and Shrubs, representing one of the earliest systematic plantings of North American species in European gardens. Many of the original specimens were shipped directly from Philadelphia by the renowned naturalist John Bartram, establishing Painshill as a crucial site in the history of botanical exchange between the Old and New Worlds. The Pinetum includes the famous Great Cedar, believed to be the largest of its kind in all of Europe, demonstrating the success of Hamilton's experimental approach to horticulture. In Bridgerton, these mature exotic trees provided an atmospheric woodland setting that emphasized the grandeur and sophistication of English estate gardens. The collection represents the Georgian era's spirit of scientific inquiry and global exploration, making it both historically significant and visually striking for period drama filming.
