Aprašymas

Originally the small plots where rural workers grew the vegetables, herbs and flowers they needed, cottage gardens were romanticised and reimagined by nostalgic Victorian gardeners into a bucolic idyll. The style has endured ever since: drifts of colourful perennials mingle with fragrant roses, boisterous self-seeders teeter on the brink of chaos, fruit and vegetables scramble through rustic supports. Small in scale, wildlife friendly, natural and organic, 'old-fashioned' cottage gardens are perfectly in tune with gardening in the modern day.

This book will feature 20 of the most beautiful examples of cottage gardens in the UK today; from iconic gardens open to the public such as Great Dixter and Charleston in Sussex and Sissinghurst in Kent, to the lesser seen private spaces of notable creatives.

Abundant and dream-like, these gardens will transport you into a distinctly British world of peonies, foxgloves, roses and dahlias, with interviews with the designers and head gardeners featured to provide plenty of inspiration for bringing your own cottage garden to life.
