Building on that and moving with the times, as you would expect, he embraces contemporary thinking that junks some of the ‘rules’ (for example, planting in threes and fives) and advocates a looser, less controlled approach that chimes with today’s gardeners.

something that works for you - your time constraints, your budget, your family requirements, the sort of plants you like, and the effect you want to achieve.Taking an artisan's approach and finding ideas from his own garden, each project starts with Adam's inspiration, walking the reader through the creative process with clear step-by-step photography and instructions. I particularly enjoyed the section on ornamental edibles, which introduced me to Japanese spikenard and lopsided onions.
