In this eloquent plea for compassion and respect for all species, journalist and gardener Nancy Lawson describes why and how to welcome wildlife to our backyards. Through engaging anecdotes and inspired advice, profiles of home gardeners throughout the country, and interviews with scientists and horticulturalists, Lawson applies the broader lessons of ecology to our own outdoor spaces. Detailed chapters address planting for wildlife by choosing native species; providing habitats that shelter baby animals, as well as birds, bees, and butterflies; creating safe zones in the garden; cohabiting with creatures often regarded as pests; letting nature be your garden designer; and encouraging natural processes and evolution in the garden. The Humane Gardener fills a unique niche in describing simple principles for both attracting wildlife and peacefully resolving conflicts with all the creatures that share our world.

M.J. has snapped thousands of photographs of flowers. On holidays in different parts of Britain with a gardening club, she could spend days finding new plants to enjoy and take their memories home with her photographs. Wisley RHS gardens are a particular joy to her and some of her happiest memories come from pushing grandchildren round its ever-changing flora. On the way home from a cancer operation my husband, Ray, and I stopped off at Hampton Court Palace for a coffee (euphemism for cake and coffee) and then walked in the gardens. After an unpleasant but necessary facial operation the sight of daffodils, bluebells and other plants lifted our spirits and two photos of daffodils are included. While in Lock down she continues snapping the flowers from her garden and she took the opportunity to keep feeling happy by preparing this book which she hopes the flower photos will make others also see the joy in the flowers and feel less confined themselves. Flower Power Photobook was put together during lock down when we could not go out to see this spring’s flowers. I hope you enjoy them.
