This year I was happy to know that a Biography had been written about the Man and the Garden.
What a great joy was to know closely this english character and his thoughts about gardening and life. He was a master gardener and wrote many books on gardening with his ideas from Great Dixter, his garden, and his influencies, the trips to see gardens or wildflowers around the world and all his friends who loved gardening.
The book also shows us a bit of the Gardening World in England, wich is very interesting, from an English Gardens’s admirer point of view.
Next step, read a few of Christopher Lloyd’s books and visit Great Dixter, still open to the public, and breath a few nostalgic memories from the place.
