From Carol childhood adventures in Manchester to her first experiments in plantswomanship at Glebe Cottage, and from training as an artist and a teacher, and then finding an entirely unexpected career as one of Britain’s most beloved television presenters, this long-awaited memoir tells the story of the people, places and plants that have shaped Carol’s life. Exploring why our relationship with the natural world is so important, and how it brings joy, creativity and good health to our lives, Carol also offers irresistible insights on her favourite flowers and plants, and how to help them flourish.
A story of a life lived happily amongst the greenery, this book is the perfect companion for anyone who has sought solace in the natural world.
'Living life is like gardening in a temperate climate: there are moments of growth and flourish, moments of pause and decline, and periods of reflection and wonderful regeneration.
And how exciting it is to exist in this kind of garden – and how dull it would be to live in tropical climes, with a landscape that always remains the same.’
