Gardens Illustrated Magazine June 2019 Vorige editie

The June issue is full of ideas and inspiration for designing traditional gardens with modern elements. We visit an abundant meadow garden with strong structure, a rural garden that encompasses an Islamic-style courtyard garden and a gently evolving garden based on ideas of wilder-style planting. There are also ideas for gardens on a small scale, with a restful woodland garden in a small city space and a narrow, walled garden with clever and sympathetic zoning. Tom Brown shares his favourite plants for June and John Hoyland discovers new penstemons that combine rich tones and constant colour. Learn how a Welsh farmhouse became the unlikely setting for the production of artisan rosewater and delve into the dramatic and moody new botanical work from photographer Fleur Olby. With design tips for using topiary to enhance your garden and how biochar can transform the way you grow plants, this issue cannot be missed.
