‘The art of gardens, plants and flowers’

The progressive guide to all things botany. As well as garden-adjacent things viewed through a creative lens, you’ll be met with interesting digressions that take you into the realms of art, fashion, food, architecture, animals, but always bring you closer to nature.

In this issue:
This time, the editors take us to the olive groves of Puglia, literature-inspired wedding feasts, sculpture inspired by the natural world, Mattuthavani flower market in Madurai, and more. As usual, each copy is accompanied by (the now paid-for) supplement-turned-sister publication Rakes Sense: The Art of Fragrance, now five editions in. Perfect for the gardener, florist, or perfumer in your life.
