 The perfect companion to the best selling Dream Gardens (Sunday Times Gardening Book of the Year), Dream Gardens of England is a beautifully designed sourcebook of 100 gardens of all styles in all parts of the country.  It presents a wonderful variety of garden-designs ideas, from modern sophistication to lush romanticism, and from small city plots to large gardens in breathtaking rural locations.  Each garden is photographed to show all the key features and essential details, while concise descriptions offer a rare insight into the aims and achievements of some of today’s leading gardeners.  With captions identifying the plants depicted, this book is an invaluable source of information and inspiration.

Barbara Baker is a writer and keen gardener.  She is the author of Why We Garden: A British Obsession (1998).  Jerry and Marcus Harpur of Harpur Garden Images, based in Essex are critically acclaimed photographers whose work appears in many books, magazines and newspapers.

Nearly 60 of the gardens featured in the book open for the NGS and in her introduction Barbara acknowledges the contribution that the NGS makes in allowing people to visit gardens.
