Highgrove: A Garden Celebrated is a commemoration of the beautiful, mature gardens planned and planted by The Prince of Wales over thirty years ago
The gardens at Highgrove evoke intense emotion. In January, the dramatic light and early snowdrops of the Stumpery are exquisite; the glistening emerald lawns and tree blossoms in Spring lift the spirits with a promise of what is to come; in Summer, the longed-for delphiniums in the Sundial Garden stand proudly to attention and dramatic leaf colours welcome Autumn to the Arboretum as the harvesting in the Kitchen Garden begins. In Winter the structural elements of the garden have their moment of glory as the year comes to a close and the cycle of the seasons continues.
As the months pass, the gardens at Highgrove change dramatically. By wandering through each part of this astounding garden through the seasons, The Prince of Wales, along with Bunny Guinness, describe the thinking behind each garden, the mistakes and the triumphs, and his plans for the future.
Lavishly illustrated with photographs that capture both the light and detail of this magisterial space, this beautiful book will delight and inspire gardeners of every level. It is an exquisite celebration of garden design, passion and inspiration.
