Riassunto:

The ultimate garden book - both a collection of gardens from around the world and a resource for those seeking inspiration on garden design and planting. Featuring over 250 permanent gardens by leading garden designers, horticulturalists and landscape architects, from the 14th century to the present day, and covering all key types and styles of garden, this well-illustrated compendium combines images, text, key information and captions for each of the featured gardens, appealing to both amateur and professional gardeners, as well as garden designers.

Informazioni sull'autore: Dr Toby Musgrave has a passion for horticulture and garden history which began at a very early age and shows no signs of abating. With a degree in horticulture and a Ph.D in garden history, both from Reading University, he has been an independent scholar since 1994. Toby has found an outlet for his enthusiasm and knowledge in a range of different media including books, television, radio, newspapers and magazines, as a lecturer, and most recently in a blog. Toby lives in Denmark, where his ¼-acre garden is an uneven mix of ornamentals, edibles (heritage varieties, of course) and weeds, and where he finds the climate 'challenging'.
