Default New garden book

Keith Wiley, one time curator of The Garden House at Buckland Monachorum
near Tavistock, Devon has written a book coming out in April at £19.99. It's
called "On the Wild Side" and the review says it "challenges our whole
understanding of what a garden is. Why strive for year-round colour
throughout the garden when small areas can seize the limelight at their
seasonal peak?"
Knowing Keith a little and having visited The Garden House often, I think
this could be a very good and interesting book written by a passionate
gardener.

I'm currently reading 'Seeds of Fortune' by Sue Shephard ISBN 0-7475-6066-8.

All about the Veitch family nurseries, and plant hunting around the world
during the Victorian era. Definitely recommend it.
