A Year Full of Flowers: Gardening for all seasons

My recommendation: I've bought the set of books from Sarah Raven: Year full of Flowers, Year full of Pots and A Year in the Edible Garden. The first two books were very educational for me, the Edible Garden not as much (I guess I have more experience veg gardening than flower gardening so far). A great book to expose you to all the flowers year round, and get your brain spinning on what you want to do. Recommended.

Book Description: A Year Full of Flowers reveals the hundreds of hardworking varieties that make the garden sing each month, together with the practical tasks that ensure everything is planted, staked and pruned at just the right time.

Tracing the year from January to December at her home, Perch Hill, Sarah offers a complete and transporting account of a garden crafted over decades. Sharing the lessons learned from years of plant trials, she explains the methods that have worked for her, and shows you how to achieve a space that's full of life and colour.

Discover long-lasting, divinely scented tulips, roses that keep flowering through winter, the most magnificent dahlias and show-stopping alliums, as well as how to grow sweet peas up a teepee, take cuttings from chrysanthemums and stop mildew in its tracks.

This is passionate, life-enriching gardening; it's also simple, adaptable and can work for you. Sarah has made the garden central to her life – this book shows you how you can too.
