Christopher Lloyd (Christo) was one of the greatest English gardeners of the twentieth century, perhaps the finest plantsman of them all. His creation is the garden at Great Dixter in East Sussex, and it is a tribute to his vision and achievement that, after his death in 2006, the Heritage Lottery Fund made a grant of u4 million to help preserve it for the nation. This enjoyable and revealing book u the first biography of Christo u is also the story of Dixter from 1910 to 2006, a unique unbroken history of one English house and one English garden spanning a century.
