Publisher's Synopsis

Following on from Husbandry, a book about making gardens with her husband and fellow garden designer, Julian ('Mr B.'), Isabel Bannerman, author of Scent Magic, returns to the scented realm in a discursive book in which she examines, through her enchanting text and equally winning photographs, the smells of the garden and of life. Because of the many twists of fate that have engulfed us all since the publication of Scent Magic in 2019, Isabel felt an urgent need to return to the sense of smell (so closely conjoined with taste) and to muse more deeply on its value not only in design but to our souls, and our vitality as individuals. This book is about scented plants and why we might benefit by using scented plants to enhance our gardens, our window boxes, our workplaces - and our lives.
