A history of gardens in Britain with special reference to the evolution of different styles and the changing importance in them of native and exotic plant species.

How does a garden differ from other habitats, both natural and semi-natural? Is it true that the modern home garden is largely a collection of hybrids between exotic species? These and other questions are answered in New Naturalist: Garden Natural History. It touches on subjects such as plant fertilising, watering, pest and disease control, pesticide usage, greenhouses, lawn mowing digging, pruning, hedge clipping, protecting plants from wildlife, scarers and traps. It also points out the role of the gardener as a conservator and how the garden can be an inspiration for a naturalist.

The New Naturalist series now contains over 100 other titles and Garden Natural History is a must have for every collector or person with an interest in natural history.
