Description
Book Synopsis"A practical and inspirational guide to a new style of planting." -Country Homes & Interiors In this practical and inspirational guide, Greg Loades presents a new style of planting: a fusion between classic cottage style and the new perennial movement.
Using real gardens as examples, The Modern Cottage Garden teaches gardeners how to combine the best of both styles-big, colourful blooms and striking grasses and native plants-into one beautiful space that requires little maintenance and has a long season of interest.
Fresh planting ideas for containers, small gardens, and diverse climates present an exciting style that can shine anywhere.
Trade Review"Greg's enthusiasm for plants and for this unbridled gardening approach is clear. The result is encouragement for those new to the style and reassurance to embolden the spirit of those already convinced of its merits." --Chris Beardshaw, garden designer and broadcaster "An inspirational book, with encouraging words and down-to earth advice for achieving a year-round beautiful garden." --Michael Marriott, chief rosarian at David Austin Roses
