New Small Garden cover

Small gardens can offer a wealth of opportunity for plants, people and wildlife, accommodating the numerous demands we make on our outdoor spaces today.

Author Noel Kingsbury sets out to retrain the eyes of the small-garden owner so that they can adapt and improve their space. From making the best selections for your garden and exploring new ways to display plants, to explaining sustainable practices and methods to embrace biodiversity, he shows that a lack of space does not limit our ability to create exciting plant communities. 

New Small Garden contains more than 450 insightful photographs by leading lifestyle photographer Maayke de Ridder including six whole-garden case studies illustrating the design and planting principles behind successful small gardens.

'Packed with enticing photographs and case studies.... worth the investment even if you simply enjoy the photographs by Maayke de Ridder. They make the book glow' * The Garden *
"An excellent hardback packed with useful ideas" * Garden Answers *
"a book you’ll refer to time and time again" -- Alan Titchmarsh * Waitrose Weekend *
