With a growing concern for the decline of pollinators and natural habitats, New Wild Garden highlights the current creative movements surrounding meadows. It showcases the efforts of gardeners, wildlife enthusiasts, professional designers, and seed suppliers who are exploring new possibilities for planting and the visual effects that can be achieved. The book emphasizes the benefits these gardens provide for both the ecosystem and the gardener, making it a valuable resource for all.

Comprising 15 detailed projects and an essential plant list, New Wild Garden aims to inspire gardeners of all levels. Readers will learn how to sow and establish meadows suited to their specific spaces, with planting plans tailored for various plot sizes, from small containers to larger acres. Additionally, it covers the propagation of over 50 wildflower species and offers recipes for meadows that cater to different soil types and wildlife habitats.
