New Country Garden

"New Country Garden" explores a style of gardening that can be adapted to a small urban backyard or a spacious rural retreat. Plants remain at the heart of these gardens, but are used in strikingly new ways - with a wild mix of height, scale, and colour that breaks all the old rules. Elspeth Thompson begins by exploring the themes that characterize the new country garden and then focuses on each of the elements, such as design, garden features, water, and perfect plants, all photographed by Melanie Eclare.
