The essential independent guide to garden visiting, published annually since 1990, now comes illustrated with over 200 colour photographs, many of them featuring gardens and public spaces that deserve to be far better known. Long acknowledged by the gardening press as the leader in the field, it is now not only a work of reference but also a book to treasure.
