Insights
Inspired by his friend, gardener and florist Sarah Raven, and childhood hen-keeping pen pal the late Dowager Duchess of Devonshire, Parkinson’s domain was one of resplendent flowers, feather-legged hens, handwritten blackboards and flower arranging, all depicted here in full colour images to inspire and delight. The book also features monthly gardening checklists, plant profiles, advice on henkeeping and innovative ideas of how to grow and display plants, so this is both a useful guide and a sumptuous visual feast.
