Description
The presentation touches on the enormous contributions in the late 20th century of two of the most important horticulturists, garden designers, and their legacies to come out of Britain -- Christopher Lloyd and Beth Chatto. It traces each of their origins with their individual gardens, and grows to their remarkable friendship, their interests and passions, and how this shaped the future of gardens as we know them today. Loaded with images, it is interesting to those interested in history and culture, as well as plant enthusiasts.
