The Thoughtful Gardener: An Intelligent Approach to Garden Design

â€˜The most romantic, creative person in garden design I know.â€™Piet Oudolf

â€˜Jinny's genius is to marry a beautiful vision to an extraordinary empathy with the landscape into which that vision will fit, resulting in a pastoral harmony second to noneâ€™ â€“ Victoria, Lady Getty

Prolific designer Jinny Blom embraces a wideÂ variety of styles, from large garden spaces toÂ formal walled gardensandÂ contemporary installations. What defines her work is her skill with plants and her ability to create a garden that responds to the history of the site and the wider landscape. The gardens Jinny creates are as different as their owners and their locations.

In this book, Jinny shares her insight into the creative process she has developed while designing more than 250 gardens around the world.Â The Thoughtful GardenerÂ containsÂ modern takes on traditional forms, and is split into six sections: seeing, understanding, structuring, harmonising, rooting, and liberating.
All of Jinny's gardensÂ share a commitment to beautiful craftsmanship and considered planting. Structure and detail are important, and receive close attention. The styles vary considerably â€“ logical, calm, beautiful, romantic, naturalistic, formal, sometimes spare â€“ but the principles remain firm. Jinny designs for the long term, with consideration for the environment; these gardens are built to last.
Reflecting Jinnyâ€˜s highly individual character, there is plenty of wit and quirkiness alongside the expert knowledge, and it will appeal to the widest audience of garden lovers. Thoughtful and beautiful, yet practical and informative, this book marries artistry with functionality.
