The Big Book of English Gardens

Published 5th May 2022 Pottering around the garden is a great way to relax. Spending a couple of hours doing some deep weeding or relocating plants that are struggling can be both therapeutic and make a valuable contribution to your patch. Even if you’re a gardening amateur, why not try to achieve some sense of colour palette and plant strategy? Some seasons it will work, others not, but that’s part of the fun and excitement – not knowing if the tulips will resurface or the wisteria will blossom as well as last year. The Big Book of English Gardens showcases the very best traditional gardens, all beautifully photographed, as chosen by the Period Living team. Discover inspiring design ideas, interesting plant combinations and useful garden tips, plus horticulturist Mike Lavelle provides practical advice to ensure maximum enjoyment of your garden all year round.
