The Definitive Reference and Guide to 2,000 Beautiful Gardens.
Patrick Taylor, well-known to millions of gardeners and plant lovers for his annually anticipated 'Daily Telegraph Gardener's Guide To Britain And Ireland' has broadened his search for horticultural delights and produced a remarkable survey of gardens that ranks alongside Nikolaus Pevsner's iconic Survey of the Buildings of England in the quality of its descriptive portraits and analysis.
Encompassing the broadest sweep of Britain's horticultural heritage, Patrick examines every type of garden, from the classical splendour of Chatsworth and the romance of the "Lost" Gardens of Heligan to the extraordinary ecological diversity and futuristic ambitions of the Eden Project.
Every garden included in the guide has been carefully evaluated and lavishly photographed by the author. All are open to visitors and directions, opening times, facilities and other essential information invaluable to every garden and plant lover are clearly set out.
