A Wildflower Year
A beautifully illustrated and giftable guide to a year in wildflowers, from BBC's Gardeners' World presenter Francis Tophill. Experience a year through 60 wildflowers, beautifully pressed, illustrated and described. Throughout the year, Gardeners' World presenter Frances Tophill has collected and documented 60 beautiful wildflowers. For each species, she eloquently describes its importance and unique features, as well as their habitat, when they can be found, and what other species you might expect to find nearby. She also explains whether they are edible and their possible medicinal uses. Wildflowers have a crucial role to play in the fight to preserve our vital biodiversity, combat climate change and support pollinators. A Wildflower Year is both a month-by-month ode to wildflowers, and a useful tool for identifying and growing your own.
The Modern Gardener
'Frances Tophill is not only a qualified horticulturalist but is fast becoming the fresh new face of television gardening.' Daily Mail
We no longer just want to garden, we want to engage with the land; the plants in it, the animals, insects and even the fungi. The Modern Gardener isn't just about creating a space that simply looks visually stunning, but about encouraging wildlife, reducing our carbon footprint and making our outdoor and indoor space more useful in all areas of our lives.
As well as how to select and grow your plants, there is also information for how to design your garden alongside a variety of plant-based recipes - from delicious drinks to natural dyes - that can easily be made at home.
