The National Trust School of Gardening

A Treasure Chest of Gardening Advice and Inspiration

Rebecca Bevan

Description

The National Trust looks after hundreds of beautiful gardens of every imaginable shape and size across Britain – from the grandest country estate to the smallest cottage garden. National Trust garden staff receive countless questions from visitors about plants growing in the gardens and techniques that can be tried at home. This in-depth guide will pass on their wisdom and provide the answers you are looking for.

With the help of National Trust gardeners, the book will make you feel confident about developing your garden rather than overwhelmed with unnecessary technical detail. From herbaceous borders to gardening sustainably, roses and climbers to growing under glass, each chapter provides snippets of horticultural history, examples of best practice from National Trust gardens, unique gems of wisdom from talented NT gardeners and lots of easy-to-follow practical advice.

The topics covered and the insightful practical guides shared are easily applicable to private gardens, enriching even the tiniest urban spaces.
