Item description

There is perhaps no style of garden more emotive and evocative than the cottage garden - imbued with a sense of romance, idealized by writers and painters, and so alluring to garden makers all over the world, it has been fashionable for nearly two centuries. But today we often think of it as outdated, old-fashioned, past its sell-by date. The author argues that, in fact, with the hustle and bustle of today's frantic lifestyle, the cottage garden has never been more appropriate. It is the distillation of the essence of what a garden should be - it is a place of beauty, repose and tranquillity. It enables us to get back in touch with the soil, to enjoy the hugely rewarding, but simple pleasures of sowing seed and taking cuttings, of caring for plants and watching them grow and thrive, of harvesting and eating home grown produce. When the work is done, we can relax in a beautiful, sweetly scented floral retreat. The book includes designs and artwork that help fulfil the dream and should inspire readers to create a beautiful and practical cottage garden, in whichever style they prefer. It also features a catalogue of specific plants to achieve each look, with horticultural guidelines, and a list of stockists and suppliers.

We appreciate the impact a good book can have. We know the excitement of a new page turner, or the familiar joy of an old favourite. We all like the idea of saving a bit of cash, so when we found out how many good quality used books are out there - we just had to let you know! All of our books are checked for quality before they go on sale and we like to think that our prices mean that no book is beyond your budget.

At World of Books Ltd we are committed to minimising our environmental impact. Each month we recycle over 2.3 million books, saving over 12,500 tonnes of books a year from going straight into landfill sites. All of our paper waste is recycled and turned into corrugated cardboard. We believe that it is a travesty to simply throw away a used book when there is nothing wrong with it - we believe in giving each book the chance of finding a new home.
