	Gardens of Lucullus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Lucullus had firsthand experience of Persian gardening style, in the satraps' gardens of Anatolia ('Asia' to the Romans) and in Mesopotamia and Persia itself.
		His garden, which became the favorite playground of Claudius' Empress Messalina (after she forced the current owner, Valerius Asiaticus, to commit suicide), was filled with Greek sculpture, both originals and copies of “old masters”.
		Lucullus is memorialized with a strain of Swiss chard.

	The Harrow: Review: The Gardens of Lucullus
		The opening chapters of The Gardens of Lucullus set Rufus Hibernicus, a gruff veteran gladiator whose mercenary tendencies conflict with his own fundamentally good nature, against the Rome-hating sorcerer Simon of Gitta in a gladiatorial clash of tigers and humans that vividly evokes the thunder of cheering crowds and the smell of sweat and dust.
		The Gardens of Lucullus compares favorably with the best classic pulp swords and sorcery novels — Hibernicus and Simon are a time-honored heroic combination, the former heartily carnal and the latter quietly intellectual, both bound together by their genuine concern for the lives of innocents.
		The Gardens of Lucullus reads like an old favorite — like one of those pulps you checked out of the library when you were a little kid and read on a hot summer day, happily transported to ancient worlds with larger-than-life heroes while waiting for the ice-cream truck to work its way to your block.

		At the same time she was looking greedily at the gardens which Lucullus had begun and which Asiaticus was now adorning with singular magnificence, and so she suborned Suilius to accuse both him and Poppaea.
		Messalina meanwhile, in the gardens of Lucullus, was struggling for life, and writing letters of entreaty, as she alternated between hope and fury.
		Hurrying on before with all speed to the gardens, he found Messalina stretched upon the ground, while by her side sat Lepida, her mother, who, though estranged from her daughter in prosperity, was now melted to pity by her inevitable doom, and urged her not to wait for the executioner.

		The garden facade of the villa, however, is much less formal and highly ornamented and may have been redesigned by Giacomo della Porta to accommodate the sculpture collection purchased by Medici in 1578.
