Gardening at Eden: And How to Do It at Home

Buch

From the people who planted and learnt from the botanical garden, this focuses on all the different habitats of Eden and how they are gardened; all the techniques used and lessons learned; how these can be translated into the domestic garden; and the stories and anecdotes of a brand new botanic garden. This work is genuinely inspirational, full of practical advice and lavishly illustrated with 300 specially commissioned photographs.
