First published in 1870, The Wild Garden challenged the prevailing garden style of the day and advocated a naturalistic style, in which hardy plants, both native and exotic, are arranged in groupings that mimic wild landscapes. Thanks to Robinson's passionate advocacy, the naturalistic style triumphed, andRobinsons urgent message continues to resonate today.For this newly designed edition, Rick Darke has written an introductory essay that not only underscores Robinson's importance in the evolution of garden design and ecology, but also explains his relevance for today's gardeners, designers, and landscape professionals. The book contains over 100 stunning photographs taken by Darke, including images of Gravetye and of modern ';wild' gardens.

A spectacular, oversized facsimile edition of a famous text by best-loved garden writer William Robinson with new color photos and a foreword by its current renowned gardener, Tom Coward, which bring this historic estate and garden to new life. Gravetye Manor is considered, along with nearby Sissinghurst and Great Dixter, one of England's most famous and exquisite estate gardens. Robinson purchased the Elizabethan-era property in 1885; working for decades to create its renowned gardens. More recently, it has been turned into a luxury destination hotel complete with a Michelin-star restaurant, and renowned British gardener Coward has been working for fourteen years to restore the gardens faithfully to Robinson's original vision. Pithy and prolific Robinson is widely acknowledged to have been one of the greatest gardeners of all time, known as "the Irishman who taught the British how to garden," and the pioneer of the naturalistic planting style still emulated today by garden designers including Piet Oudolf and many others. With mentions of specific plants, cultivars, and planting schemes as well as observations of seasonal changes and moods, home gardeners today will relate to Robinson's charming and entertaining original text and see their own smaller-scale efforts reflected in his own gardening triumphs, failures, and experiments. New color photographs of the current estate gardens show how diligently efforts are being made to restore the house and garden to Robinson's original vision--to spectacular result.
