A garden-led philosophy -- From garden to vase -- Getting started -- Plant directory

"This book turns the spotlight on perennials and woody plants which return year after year with little effort or waste, offer valuable habitats to garden wildlife, and also bring a more natural quality to arrangements. Flower farmer Rachel Siegfried began her career as an estate gardener in the Cotswolds and in this book she shares her selection of 130 rigorously trialed plants and her garden-led philosophy that together bring such exceptional results. Her exquisite arrangements capture the essence each plant making the most of characterful twists and tendrils, testament to years of expert botanical observation and hands in the soil."--Publisher marketing
