NOEL Kingsbury has canvassed the world's "greatest garden makers" to steer the reader through the principles and practice of garden design. With a strong emphasis on plants and planting, this is a luxurious primer and invaluable resource for anyone searching for inspiration. Kingsbury's pantheon includes Piet Oudolf, Beth Chatto and our own Ted Smyth, who is sought out for his views on water gardens.
