内容概要

From the opulent and grand to the intimate and practical the gardens of England are as diverse as they are loved. Here, Britain's leading garden photographer Andrew Lawson has  travelled the length and breadth of the land to capture the true essence of the English garden.Seen through all the seasons, the gardens range from those of magnificent country houses with sumptuous borders and immaculate parterres,through to intimate private gardens full of character, charm and eccentricity, to those of tiny cottage plots, bursting with a colourful array of flowers and vegetables. Panoramic views and delicate close-ups contribute to the overall tapestry: romantic rose gardens, productive potagers and tumbling waterfalls are interwoven with wildflower meadows and clipped topiary. An authoritative and accessible text by the well-known garden writer Jane Taylor provides the perfect commentary to Andrew Lawson's stunning images and with an index and list of gardens to visit, Great English Gardens can also be used as a guide to the most ravishing gardens in the country.
