In this light-hearted book, poet and gardener James Fenton
describes a hundred plants he would choose to grow from seed. 'It
seemed a simple and interesting idea: what plants would you choose
if starting a garden from scratch?' Includes chapters on flowers
for colour, size, or exotic interest; herbs and meadow flowers;
climbing vines and tropical species; the micro-meadow; raising
plants from seed; and a wealth of personal tips and advice. As
Fenton writes, 'the emphasis is on childish simplicity of approach,
and economy of outlay.' Here is a happy, stylish, thought-provoking
exercise in good principles, which exudes that rare thing:
common-or-garden sense about gardens.
