About Me

My photo
Noel Kingsbury
Hay on Wye, England/Wales, United Kingdom
Garden writer and researcher, lecturer and teacher, based in the England/Wales border region. An occasional designer of plantings for gardens and public spaces.Other interests, and subjects for occasional publication are agriculture, food politics and environmental issues. Chiefly known for promoting naturalistic and sustainable planting design, I am a believer in design and decision-making based on science and evidence – so I have not signed up to organic jihad. And - lot of globe-trotting doesn’t stop me gardening myself either! (pic. credit Andrea Jones)

The most exciting garden in Europe: Hermannshof. And the most beautiful, Le Jardin de Berchigranges. In England I'd flag up Holbrook Gardens in Scotland: Cambo.
Favourite nurseries are Crug Farm, Cotswold Garden Flowers, in Austria Sarastro and Ewald Hugin in Germany.
Photographer Andrea Jones is someone I much admire. Piet Oudolf is deservedly regarded as probably the best garden designer in the world. At the University of Sheffield, James Hitchmough 's work is revolutionary and full of enormous potential; Nigel Dunnett at Sheffield is a green roof, rain garden and sustainable planting guru. Over in the USA Tracy DiSabato Aust is a gardener of skill and originality. In Uruguay, Amalia Robredo is doing very good work.

Of garden websites check out Thinking Gardens for something completely thought-provokingly different, though 'tis a bit like the sea - there are deep bits and shallow bits.

Finally, a friend, Jonathan Garratt - he's a potter, but with a good understanding of gardens and an acerbic commentator on the British gardening scene.

Welcome to the garden....

This blog is a place for observations, thoughts and opinions that occur to me as a gardener, horticultural journalist, researcher and commentator on the garden and landscape scene. And sometimes on the food and agriculture scene too.... when, you should be warned, I sometimes express unfashionable thoughts.

Interview

In February I went to Switzerland to do a lecture for the Swiss Hardy Plant Society (rather quaintly called the Swiss Friends of Perennial Plants). Here is the original English version of an interview he did with me. (you can see German and French above). Merci à Xavier Allemann.
