Following the success of "Creative Container Gardening", this book describes how to plant over 125 different containers that will provide colour at all times of the year. The step-by-step 'recipe' approach is simple and informative, and the colour photographs are beautiful and inspirational. Kathleen Brown has been called "the Delia Smith of gardening".
Following her two books on containing gardening, Kathleen Brown has applied her idea of recipes for planting schemes to the cottage garden. Here are 50 plans for different sites and seasons, illustrated with watercolours that capture the essence of the English garden. Descriptions for the plants used in the schemes complement the plans, and there are 20 container schemes included with colour photographs.
