From 1946, the poet and novelist Vita Sackville-West wrote a gardening column in the Observer. These were later collected in a set of books published between 1951 and 1958. Frances Lincoln is pleased to be making these classic gardening books available once more. Vita's extensive gardening knowledge, intense passion for her subject and lively literary flair are timeless and inspirational, making these books essential for any serious gardener's bookshelf.
... the best light reading on the topic to reappear this year are still the collections of newspaper articles by Vita Sackville West … They unite a literary turn with practical knowledge and a whimsical, inquiring mind and eye. I hope that no generation of new gardeners will grow up without reading such delights as her In Your Garden Again. These books inspired me to try to be a gardening columnist - Financial Times
