Summary
Discover what grows well, when and where to visit, understand the challenges that the owners have faced, and have a taste of the world-class gardens to be found in this corner of England.
The 20 beautiful gardens included here celebrate the culture, beauty and diversity of the Cornish landscape – including unique micro-climates, rhododendrons and stunning scenery – through their sumptuous photography, fascinating stories and audiences with their owners.
From each garden we can learn about the creator’s style, their talent for exploiting the genius loci, and the specific challenges and rewards they have encountered.
Author Biography
Tim Hubbard is a former award-winning BBC presenter and journalist who has lived and gardened in Cornwall for over forty years. He now interviews at Literary Festivals around the country, guides private garden tours and also writes books as well as for newspapers and magazines including BBC Countryfile and RHS's The Garden. With his architect husband Nick Purchase, Tim is creating a new clifftop garden facing the Atlantic Ocean and is quickly learning to love any plant which can survive salt water spray and storm force winds!
