Product Description

Winner of the National Trust Outdoor Book of the Year 2011 The story of one man's unlikely quest to create out of a mountainous Welsh landscape a garden fit for inclusion in the prestigious Yellow Book
- the ' Gardens of England & Wales Open for Charity' guide
- in just one year. The son of two passionate gardeners, Antony Woodward was born with chlorophyll running through his veins. Unfortunately, growing up with Latin plant names took its toll, & he was ingrained early on with a profound loathing of both gardens & gardening. Buying Tair-ffynnon, a derelict smallholding 1, 300 feet up in the Black Mountains of Wales, changed everything. Hooked by its beauty
- when not buried in cloud
- Woodward battles to meet the strict requirements of the famous ' Yellow Book' in this unlikely terrain. He finds himself driven by apparently inexplicable compulsions: wood chopping, hauling a 20-tonne railway carriage up a mountain, even beekeeping. Soon, his voyage along the rocky path to his own patch of paradise takes on a more personal tenor as he unearths the deep roots linking gardening & his childhood in this warm, funny & unlikely memoir. Beautifully written & effortlessly engaging, ' The Garden in the Clouds' is a compelling read for anyone who has ever gardened
- or ever dreamt of doing so.
