Review
A joint venture between renowned garden writer Steve Bradley and his wife Val, horticulturalist and writer too. Together they give a comprehensive insight into fragrant gardening - its history from Ancient times through to its present resurgence, detailed planting plans and methods and A-Z lists of scented shrubs and flowers for each season of the year. From the intoxicating scent of lilies filling a summer evening to the comforting smell of lavender as it is brushed by, scent plays an integral part in garden design, bringing a cohesive wholeness to the outdoor experience. But not only outdoors, bringing flowers and plants into the house, introduces this magic to your indoor rooms, filling them with a scent far sweeter than any air freshener: potted hyacinths, a spray of Chimonanthus praecox, a vase of sweet-peas. Foliage too plays its part with the oil-filled leaves of scented geraniums and citrus plants, adding a sharpness to what could become too cloying. Lavishly illustrated, clearly explained and knowledgeably written, this is an excellent guide to aromatic plants containing both common and lesser known species for consideration. - Lucy Watson
