Growing flowers for cutting brings the garden indoors and eliminates
the air miles associated with shop-bought plants.
This book turns the spotlight on perennials and woody plants which
return year after year with little effort or waste, offer valuable
habitats to garden wildlife, and also bring a more natural quality to
arrangements.
Flower farmer Rachel Siegfried began her career as an estate gardener in
the Cotswolds and in this book she shares her selection of 130
rigorously trialed plants and her garden-led philosophy that together
bring such exceptional results. Her exquisite arrangements capture the
essence each plant making the most of characterful twists and tendrils,
testament to years of expert botanical observation and hands in the
soil.
Beautiful photographs capture the seasonal diversity and natural ease
that are a hallmark of Rachel's work and provide the inspiration to make
a cutting garden that can be picked from every week of the year.
