This book is a photographic journey of a Cotswold garden reflecting the transitions that span the year. Each season is introduced by an extract from a poem or literature. In addition to bulbs, perennial plants and shrubs it includes the trees, pond, woodland flora, wildflower meadow, ornamental grasses rose beds and examples of garden wildlife. The photographs illustrating each season have been carefully sequenced starting with the soft colours of white and cream through the mid-tones of greens and pinks to a crescendo of rich reds and purples. Each type of vegetation is indexed and the physical characteristics of each described. In summary, the book is for gardeners everywhere who enjoy creating their own landscaped tranquillity broken only by the wonderful sounds from the wildlife that gardens attract.
In preparing and publishing A Cotswold Garden through the Seasons this could not be further from the author’s lifetime career experience as a Civil Engineer and Leader on Major infrastructure schemes both in the UK and many parts of the world. Now retired, Graham Plant spent over 50 years applying technical and managerial skills to deliver projects. Graham has applied the same rigour and attention to detail with this book. After a peripatetic and demanding life and finally settled in the Cotswolds it has been an opportunity for Graham to plan, design and manage a modest garden; appreciate the health benefits of gardening and through this publication to share the fruits of those labours.
