Arthur Parkinson’s evocative, elaborate descriptions of plants might be second only to his ability to elicit a charming image of garden pollinators through his drawings.
His latest book is a celebration of every single garden, and the plants perfect to create ‘a living dance of lavish colours’ - it’s a delight to have him return to the podcast to share how the new book, Planting a Paradise, was brought to life.
In this episode, discover:
- Arthur’s comfort in delightful drawings as an artistic language to convey his vision
- The importance of bees, butterflies and pollinators, and which Dahlias are most pollinator-friendly
- A number of absolute do’s and don’ts for every flower yard
