Winner of The Garden Writers' Guild Book of the Year Award 2005 The Natural Gardener shows exactly how you can use organic principles to create not only a healthy garden, with the balance to control garden pests and other hazards in an environmentally friendly way, but also one that has a special beauty. The book is brimful of ideas and information on how to create a rich, healthy, living landscape where the snuffle of a hedgehog, the moving shimmer of insects, or a cloud of butterflies are as much a dimension of the pleasure the garden brings as the beauty of the diverse range of flowers, fruits and leaves that sustain them.
