Product details

Photographers Nick Meers and Stephen Robson provide the lenses for us to view the outstanding panoramas and gorgeous details of these magnificent gardens. Through their eyes, readers will see the splendour of Cambridgeshire's Anglesy Abbey with its drifts of delicate snowdrops and the rich autumn colours of Sheffield Park in Sussex. Readers will practically smell the heady scent of midsummer roses at Mottisfont Abbey in Hampshire and feel the chill of winter's frost sparkling on topiary yews at Lytes Cary in Somerset.
Garden consultant John Sales and National Trust publisher Margaret Willes describe these and many other horticultural delights in informative text accompanying the photographs. Information is provided on necessary growing conditions for the plants pictured, as well as historical and other interesting information about the gardens.
This stunning book provides a fascinating visual record of some of the most beautiful gardens in England, Wales and Northern Ireland and will appeal to enthusiasts and armchair gardeners.--Robin Donovan
