Gardens, Annotated by Chris Young

Spanning a range of design styles, people, and places, Gardens, Annotated takes readers on a horticultural journey across the globe.

With 200 gardens profiled, this stunning photographic compendium enables you to immerse yourself in the designs, while the book’s annotated approach puts a magnifying glass up to the design choices of the world’s best garden designers in a simplified, bite-sized way for you to take inspiration.

Profiles look at everything from how the distinct look and feel of each garden is achieved to the finer details. Further historical and cultural context is presented via timelines and designer biographies, while specific plants or features of interest are highlighted on the page for a deeper dive.

This is garden design made simple and inspiring for anyone who loves gardens.
