Produktbeschreibung

Selected for The Times Best Gardening Books of the Year 2023

Every garden, large or small, in a town or in the country, even one formed completely by pots, can be a living dance of lavish colours, glorious scents and pollen-rich flowers alive to the sound of bird song and the buzz of bees.

In Planting a Paradise, Arthur Parkinson, bestselling author of The Flower Yard, focuses on what to grow through the seasons with an array of planting ideas and recommended varieties to inspire the experienced and novice gardener alike.

From his newly found love of muscari, narcissi and seeding grasses, to circuses of dahlias, luscious herbs, figs and crab apples, the result is not only a stunning living harvest but also an oasis for wildlife at a time when we need this style of gardening more than ever.

Praise for The Flower Yard:

Autorenporträt

Arthur Parkinson trained at Kew Gardens. After graduating he went to work for Sarah Raven at her farm in East Sussex and, in 2017, assisted her in creating a garden at the Chelsea Flower Show. Arthur has also created an urban cut-flower garden at the Emma Bridgewater factory in Stoke-on-Trent to great acclaim and published a book based on his work there, which was Joanna Lumley’s ‘book of the year’. In spring 2018, Arthur was named as one of the UK’s young gardening stars by Architectural Digest and has since been featured alongside his photography in Gardens Illustrated, The English Garden, Gardenista, the Guardian and the Financial Times.
