The Creative Gardener: Inspiring People, Remarkable Gardens

Celebrate Britain and Ireland’s most imaginative gardens—and the remarkable people who created them. Stephanie Mahon, editor of Gardens Illustrated, and award-winning landscape photographer John Campbell step inside the private worlds of artists, writers, designers, and makers whose gardens are as distinctive as their work. Among the featured tastemakers are:

Nigel Slater • , whose layered Highbury garden offers woodland calm in the heart of London. Matthew Rice • , the artist who carved a moat around his medieval Oxfordshire home and grows vegetables with theatrical flair. Sarah Price • , the celebrated designer whose Welsh garden is both experimental and deeply personal. • Pioneering professionals pushing boundaries in design and ecology, from Charlie Harpur • at Knepp to Jonny Bruce • at Prospect Cottage.

From city courtyards to wild country plots, formal spaces to naturalistic retreats, each garden reflects a unique vision shaped by its creator’s passions. Discover how these outdoor sanctuaries feed creativity, and how artistry and horticulture combine to produce spaces of extraordinary beauty. The Creative Gardener is a journey through gardens that marry imagination with nature—a book for anyone who loves gardens, artistry, and the stories that connect them.
