Eat Your Garden

This is a grow-your-own book with a difference: edimentals are plants that are both edible and ornamental. Some offer bountiful harvests and great flavours, others are more unusual, and then there are plants that earn their place in the garden because they are so joyful.

Edimentals can be woven into existing gardens and across different planting styles, whether formal borders, cottage gardens or meadows, and in naturalistic or minimalist designs. Harry emphasises resilient, low-maintenance perennials for a more sustainable way to grow your own food. From familiar plants, such as fennel and wild strawberry, to ostrich fern and king’s spear, Harry shows you how to create a foraging experience on your own doorstep.
