Beschreibung

<p>From 1946 to 1957, Vita Sackville-West, the poet, bestselling author of <i>All Passion Spent </i>and maker of Sissinghurst, wrote a weekly column in the <i>Observer </i>describing her life at Sissinghurst, showing her to be one of the most visionary horticulturalists of the twentieth-century.</p><p>With wonderful additions by Sarah Raven, <i>Vita Sackville-West's Sissinghurst </i>draws on this extraordinary archive, revealing Vita's most loved flowers, as well as offering practical advice for gardeners. Often funny and completely accessibly written with colour and originality, it also describes details of the trials and tribulations of crafting a place of beauty and elegance.</p><p>Sissinghurst has gone on to become one of the most visited and inspirational gardens in the world and this marvellous book, illustrated with drawings and original photographs throughout, shows us how it was created and how gardeners everywhere can use some of the ideas from both Sarah Raven and Vita Sackville-West.</p>
