The Rose Book


A gorgeous visual survey of the rose, exploring our enduring connection to one of nature’s most universally beloved flowers From a couture Dior gown and a rose-adorned Barbie to ancient mosaics and Victorian Valentine’s cards, this curated collection of more than 200 stunning images celebrates the world’s most iconic flower. Discover the extraordinary ways the universally beloved bloom has been depicted through time and across cultures, both within and beyond the garden. Featuring 220 exquisite images, The Rose Book reveals depictions as diverse as the plant’s own endless varieties – from wild ramblers to cultivated Hybrid Teas, botanical illustrations to fashion design, fragrance to film, fine art to photography. Works by figures such as Pierre-Joseph Redouté, Christian Dior, Georgia O’Keeffe, Irving Penn, Tiffany & Co., Alexander McQueen, Vincent van Gogh, and more are artfully paired to reveal intriguing juxtapositions. Captivating essays explore the horticultural history of the rose, the flower’s abundant presence in fashion, and the storied use of its scent in fragrance and perfume. The book also includes a rose glossary by Michael Marriott, and an epilogue by Shane Connolly. Whether as a symbol of beauty and love, a political and religious icon, or a beloved ornamental plant with countless cultivars, the rose has been an undeniable force in popular culture for millennia, from Ancient Greece to today.

The Garden Against Time


Inspired by the restoration of her own garden, "imaginative and empathetic critic" (NPR) Olivia Laing embarks on an exhilarating investigation of paradise. In 2020, Olivia Laing began to restore an eighteenth-century walled garden in Suffolk, an overgrown Eden of unusual plants. The work brought to light a crucial question for our age: Who gets to live in paradise, and how can we share it while there’s still time? Moving between real and imagined gardens, from Milton’s Paradise Lost to John Clare’s enclosure elegies, from a wartime sanctuary in Italy to a grotesque aristocratic pleasure ground funded by slavery, Laing interrogates the sometimes shocking cost of making paradise on earth. But the story of the garden doesn’t always enact larger patterns of privilege and exclusion. It’s also a place of rebel outposts and communal dreams. From the improbable queer utopia conjured by Derek Jarman on the beach at Dungeness to the fertile vision of a common Eden propagated by William Morris, new modes of living can and have been attempted amidst the flower beds, experiments that could prove vital in the coming era of climate change. The result is a humming, glowing tapestry, a beautiful and exacting account of the abundant pleasures and possibilities of gardens: not as a place to hide from the world but as a site of encounter and discovery, bee-loud and pollen-laden.

Big Garden Design


A sumptuous collection of Paul Bangay's contemporary yet timeless gardens. Paul Bangay is a landscape designer who relishes the challenge of working at scale. He creates gardens that feel as though they've been there forever. They emerge from the countryside, with borrowed landscapes and dramatic views as key elements. Within each design, Paul makes spaces that bring different experiences of the garden. Large sweeping lawns, magnificent soaring trees and numerous, deep garden beds. An allée of trees directs the eye to mountains in the distance. Outdoor dining areas offer intimate vantage points within the broader scale. From grand gardens in France to a forest grown from seedlings, join Paul on this tour de force of projects complete with lakes, mountains and walled gardens. Paul shares the design process, as well as garden plans and extensive planting lists, while Simon Griffiths' photography captures the sublime form and light of these generous landscapes. Big Garden Design documents the principles of landscape design from the most precise detail to the grandest vista.

The New Romantic Garden


Formal garden design remains popular because it gives natural spaces a feeling of serenity and structure, though many homeowners and home gardeners don't realize structure doesn't have to mean all closely clipped shrubs and geometric borders, but that it can be interpreted as a series of arched trellises draped with vining, heady, languid roses or using even the wildest-branching native perennials in arrangements or proportions that help the eye discern where each plant s borders begin and end. Over her 30-year career, Thompson has become recognized as master of creating decadently planted, well proportioned, English-style gardens rendered modern by a staunch commitment to biodiversity, and to the eye this translates as a looser formality than English gardens of the past, though every bit as lovely and luscious. Thompson peppers her wonderfully witty texts with a dash of lore as a nod to the idea that we are not, in fact, in complete charge of how our gardens grow; other forces are always at work, as they should be when we allow sustainable practices to help us guide rather than try to dominate nature's own efforts.

Kombinovanie rastlín: Permakultúra v praxi


Prečo je dobré v blízkosti jahôd zasadiť cesnak? Alebo cibuľu vedľa uhoriek? A naopak, prečo nie je vhodné pestovať zemiaky vedľa paradajok? Rastliny, ktoré rastú v bezprostrednej blízkosti, sa navzájom ovplyvňujú a majú na seba pozitívne alebo negatívne účinky. Ak to dokážete využiť, môžete sa tešiť na bohatšiu, chutnejšiu a zdravšiu úrodu. Dostanete pod kontrolu škodcov, burinu a to všetko aj bez chemických postrekov či hnojív. Zmiešané pestovanie je forma ekologického záhradníctva, pri ktorej sa rastliny vysádzajú tak, aby si navzájom prirodzene prospievali a posilňovali sa. Sestra Christa Weinrich je jednou z najuznávanejších odborníčok v oblasti kombinovania rastlín. Čerpá z tradície a poznatkov opátstva vo Fulde, kde sa mníšky už pred vyše 70 rokmi rozhodli pestovať zeleninu, ovocie, kvety či bylinky bez použitia chemických prípravkov. Pozorovali, ktorým rastlinám sa vedľa seba darí, a ktorým nie, čo im prospieva a čo škodí. Bio ovocie a organickú zeleninu pestovali dávno predtým, než sa tieto výrazy vôbec začali používať. Sestra Christa v knihe vysvetľuje zásady kombinovaného pestovania v zeleninovej, ovocnej a kvetinovej záhrade. Uvádza množstvo príkladov, rád, tabuliek a návodov, ako striedať a kombinovať rastliny, ako ich prirodzenou cestou posilniť a dopestovať si zdravé ovocie i zeleninu. Z nemeckého originálu Mischkultur im Hobbygarten (Eugen Ulmer KG, Stuttgart, Nemecko, 2024) preložila Henrieta Hatalová.
