The fifty years since Vita Sackville-West planted her famous herb garden at Sissinghurst has seen an unparalleled revival in the cultivation of herbs. This book displays 58 of the most delightful gardens to be found in England. Clive Boursnell's photographs show a wide diversity in design, from patterned formality to rambling informality, and a wonderful variety within both styles in situation, shape, planting and focal point.
The descriptions of the herb gardens are complemented by a herb glossary, and there is information on the history and cultivation of 42 herbs, while unique plant portraits demonstrate unequivocally how beautiful herb plants are.
