Beth Chatto has been among the most influential British gardeners of the second half of the twentieth century. When she started to make her garden on an overgrown area of wasteland in Essex in 1960 she was faced with a range of widely differing conditions from drought-stricken gravel through woodland to dense silty bog. Applying the principles of ecological gardening she set about finding plants that would suit these very different awkward situations. The gardens she made
- the Mediterranean garden on the sunny slopes the shady woodland garden the damp garden for water-loving plants the drier than dry gravel garden
- have become legendary. In this book photographer Rachel Warne has traced all these different gardens through the course of a year. She is the author of many books including her classics The Dry Garden (1978) & The Damp Garden (revised 2004) as well as Beth Chatto's Gravel Garden (2000) & Beth Chatto's Woodland Garden (2002). An engaging exchange of letters with Christopher Lloyd Dear Friend & Gardener was published in 1998. In 2002 she was awarded the OBE for her services to horticulture. A keen advocate of organic gardening she has lectured worldwide.
