{"product_id":"cottage-gardens-9780563369851","title":"Cottage Gardens","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe cottage-garden style has been part of British gardening for centuries. The first cottage gardeners had little time  space and money  and designed simple and practical settings for their homes which  in time  developed into more elaborate  and sometimes extravagant  gardens. In this book Geoff Hamilton looks to the superb old cottages of the past and adapts the more popular features to modern gardens. In building three cottage gardens from scratch at his home in Barnsdale  he sets out to simplify the practical problems of creating a natural rustic look and shows how to build new constructions such as arbours and bowers  arches  seats and boundaries to suit readers budgets. A diverse selection of planting plans emphasizing colour schemes and perfume  with explanations of how to cultivate cottage-style plants  has also been included. Practical advice covers a variety of subjects such as herbaceous plants  roses  perennials and annuals  climbers  bulbs  containers  herbs  vegetables and fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45529636798517,"sku":"ByrdShop_056336985X","price":103.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780563369851_352d68c0-a907-45bd-92f5-eb0918217e9f.jpg?v=1780939950","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/cottage-gardens-9780563369851","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
