Winter Gardens - Extended Edition

LIMITED EDITION. Only 1,000 copies available.

This special extended edition adds three new gardens to the Winter Gardens fold: Wyndcliffe Court, Henry Avray Tipping’s Arts and Crafts masterpiece; Corsley Manor, sensitively brought back to life with the addition of a striking wave lawn; and Rousham House, one of the most influential historic gardens in Britain, designed by William Kent. Each garden boasts stunning photography and illuminating texts that further complement the original roster, offering a more comprehensive look at the best winter gardens in Europe today.

In winter, the garden takes on a new, almost mystical guise. Whether you are drawn to the crisp shapes of a traditional topiary garden or the anarchy of a meadow full of seed heads, there is beauty and wonder to extract from every garden at this time of year. Stripped bare, its bones are revealed and its delicate beauty exposed. Naked branches become intricate sculptures, dusted with snow, while frost-kissed seed heads are highlighted in crystalline perfection. Colours drain away, fading to sepia brown and inky black, focusing the eye on shape and texture and encouraging us to slow down and appreciate the breathtaking beauty and detail of nature.

With a foreword by renowned garden designer Dan Pearson, whose own garden features prominently within the pages, this beautifully produced book contains hundreds of full-page photographs to explore fifteen extraordinary and contrasting gardens. Some are designed by well-known designers such as Arne Maynard, Arabella Lennox-Boyd, Piet Oudolf and Tom Stuart-Smith, while others have been developed by their owners over many years. Andrew Montgomery’s exquisite photographs present the winter garden through a new lens, highlighting shape, texture and structure, and celebrating the elements that make these gardens as beautiful in winter as they are throughout the rest of the year. Accompanying essays and interviews by Clare Foster explore the history, design and planting of each garden, along with practical notes on topics from topiary and seed heads to winter blooms.

Reviews

Seeing a garden without the thrill and frill of flowers often reveals its true genius and the iconic gardens in this book illustrate this perfectly. There is excitement in seeing them freed from all excess, their true colours revealed. The calm is palpable, and the beauty unexpected.
– Shane Connolly MBE

The extended edition of Winter Gardens adds three enticing new gardens, celebrating the atmospheric beauty unique to winter. The mellifluous text and glorious photography show that far from being a season to be endured, the cold winter months should be relished.
