From Hampton Court Palace and Gardens to the modern-day developments at the Prince of Wales' home at Highgrove, Titchmarsh takes a highly personal excursion through Britain's gardening heritage. Richly illustrated with color photos, original plans, letters, planting records, and full-color diagrams of the major surviving gardens, this is a glorious record of some of the world's most remarkable gardens.
