The Herb Garden by Sarah Garland
A practical guide to herb gardens, the varieties of herbs available and how best to grow and cultivate them. The photographs seek to illustrate the attractiveness of herbs in any situation. Practical instruction on cultivating, propagating, harvesting and using the herbs is set in the wider context of designing a pleasing and functional garden: planning a knot garden, building raised beds and banks, and establishing plants underfoot and training them overhead. A herb index catalogues the enormous variety of herbs available, with illustrations comparing species from the more complicated herb families.
Sarah Garland first became interested in herbs and their uses during her childhood in the New Forest and in recent years has concentrated on growing and using a very wide variety of herbs in her kitchen, and to treat minor ailments. She is the author of Wild Flowers of Britain and The Herb and Spice Book (also published by Frances Lincoln). She lives in Gloucestershire.
