Garden writing has been my career since the early 1980's, in which time I have written 14 gardening books and countless articles for national newspapers and magazines. I am presently a regular columnist for 'The Daily Telegraph' and 'The Spectator'.

I have won two major awards from the Garden Writers' Guild, one for my journalism in 1992, and one for my latest book, 'Garden People; Valerie Finnis and the Golden Age of Gardening', which was published in May 2007 by Thames and Hudson. A number of my books have also been published in the United States, and translated into French, German, Dutch and Danish.
