'The best informed, liveliest and most innovative gardening writer
of our times' GUARDIAN 'Christopher Lloyd ranks with Gertrude
Jekyll and Vita Sackville-West as one of the major figures in
twentieth-century British gardening' THE TIMES In this gardening
classic the forever adventurous Christopher Lloyd takes us on a
tour through the garden, to encourage, to reveal and to overturn
the old and accepted when experience prompts him. He advises on
cuttings, pruning, the art of compromise and takes another look at
Miss Jekyll. Gardening was a passion, and throughout his life he
developed Great Dixter to be one of Britain's greatest gardens. For
Christo gardening is nothing if not fun and - pointing out that 'to
be roused into an argumentative frame of mind is in itself no bad
thing' - he makes it equally stimulating and enjoyable for his
readers.
