Description
Take a wander through Adam's garden as he reflects on the plants that have shaped his life.
The scents of the rosemary and thyme lining the garden path instantly welcome you to what follows: a wildflower meadow, an ornamental kitchen garden, a shady courtyard, terrace and borders, gravel garden, and woodland walk, taking you on a tour through Adam's garden.
As you go, Adam explains his design and planting choices, drawing on personal feeling and memories as well as years of experience.
Plant profiles provide inspiration for your own planting dreams, interspersed with practical know-how on plant care and design ideas to help you create flow and moments of pause using pathways, arches, water features, and pots.
