Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Gardens for Small Country Houses Within eighteen months of its first issue the need has arisen to print a third edition of Gardens for Small Country Houses. This seems proof enough that the volume, concerned chiefly as it is with problems of garden design, has filled a place, hitherto empty, on the bookshelves of the garden-loving public. The opportunity afforded by the second edition was taken to expand the introductory chapter by including in it some further examples of gardens, notable either for the apt use which has'been made of a hillside site, as at Markyate Cell and Owlpen Manor, or for the possibilities of a walled enclosure, as at Edzell, or of topiary work in a limited space, as at Bridge End, Saffron Walden. The measured drawings of these gardens which are now reproduced were not completed in time for the first edition, but their inclusion (especially in the case of the hillside examples) has added much to the practical value of the book. For this edition fewer alterations have been made, but some further notes on plants for rock gardens have been added to Chapter XXI.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the definitive and most authoritative book ever published on the glories of English gardening--historically and horticulturally, a tour de force. An unprecedented in-depth look at the English garden by one of Britain's foremost garden writers and authorities, this book showcases the enduring appeal of the English garden whose verdant lawns and borders of colorful plants are the inspiration for garden lovers worldwide. Kathryn Bradley-Hole--the longtime garden columnist for Country Life--takes a fresh look at more than seventy gardens from across England and distills the essence of what makes the English garden style so sought after. Seasonal photographs capture the gardens--some grand, some personal, some celebrated, some rarely photographed--at their finest moments, accompanied by sparkling, insightful text. Featuring photographs from the unparalleled archives of Country Life, the full story of the English garden is here, from medieval monastery gardens to the Victorians and the Arts and Crafts movement to the twenty-first century. Designs by many of the horticultural world's greats are amply featured, including Gertrude Jekyll, Capability Brown, Piet Oudolf, and Arne Maynard, as well as gardens famous the world over--Sissinghurst, Hidcote, and Great Dixter--alongside new and less-well-known ones, many open to the public.

Download or read book Gardens Under Big Skies written by Noel Kingsbury and published by . This book was released on 2021-11 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Netherlands is steeped in horticultural history and its gardens have long been a place for innovation and progressive thinking, exemplified by iconic figures such as the landscape architect Mien Ruys and naturalistic plant pioneer Piet Oudolf. In this book, Noel Kingsbury explores how the particularities of landscape, history and culture in the Netherlands have given rise to distinctive gardens and demonstrates how a new generation of Dutch designers are reimagining outdoor space in such a revolutionary way. At the heart of the story is a people intimately engaged with their surroundings, as proud of the feats of engineering used to reclaim their land from the sea as they are passionate about nature and biodiversity. This creative tension is played out in their parks and gardens: a clean, pared-back aesthetic contrasts with billowing planting; water is managed and made accessible with boardwalks; and meandering paths lead to inviting outbuildings for work and relaxation. These inspiring examples of sustainable, modern, liveable outdoor spaces will appeal to forward-looking garden makers wherever they live.
