Críticas:

‘There is a genuine sense of honesty in what they reveal, and many insightful passages.’

'This is not a book to read all at one sitting, but to keep by your bed and sip when the mood takes you - like a heady and delicious nightcap. If you don't have it already, treat yourself. And if you have any gardeners on your Christmas list, any indecisions about presents are now resolved at a stroke.'

... a delightful collection of letters ... offers a unique insight into their successes and failures. Candid, amusing, revealing and informative

My favourite read of the year is this entertaining correspondence between our two greatest living gardeners

||

What links and distinguishes (in both senses) these two writers is that they never pass on a received opinion about a plant or gardening practice or theory. Everything they say is rooted firmly in observation and experience so their thoughts and opinions carry weight and value

||

It is this book, I suspect, that many gardeners would most like to find at the ends of their beds when they wake up on Christmas morning

Reseña del editor:

In this exchange of personal letters two of Britain's leading gardeners - Christopher Lloyd and Beth Chatto - share their successes and failures, and learn from each other's experiences in their two very different gardens.
