First published in 2004, and now fully revised and updated, this book presents Anna Pavord’s selection of 60 ‘star plants’ and their perfect partners: shrubs, herbaceous perennials, bulbs, and annuals that no garden should be without.

Anna reveals how best to group plants in a garden to create a year-long display, ranging from hydrangeas, salvias and ferns to dahlias, tulips and snowdrops. Each star plant is paired with two partners, offering gardeners creative planting solutions to achieve stunning results, season by season.
