Voted 'The Nation's Favourite Garden' in 2019 by garden visitors in conjunction with English Garden magazine and the National Gardens Scheme, featured in the 2022 Channel 5 series on 'Great British Gardens', and described by Country Life as a 'Symphony of colour where flamingos mix with flowers', the garden at Coton Manor, in Northamptonshire, is a dream and a joy - and the passion of owner and hands-on gardener Susie Pasley-Tyler.

In this book, Susie Pasley-Tyler charts how her love of gardening was born at Coton and imparts what she has learned over the past thirty years of developing its many and varied sites, the discoveries that have come to her, the mistakes she has made (and how they were repaired), and above all the sheer delight to be gained from gardening.

Andrew Lawson, pre-eminent garden photographer and colour guru, says, 'Susie Pasley-Tyler's passion for her garden is infectious. Perhaps there should be a health warning that this book will make you want to follow her example, and think again about your own garden.'

Experienced and novice gardeners alike will be encouraged and enlightened by Susie Pasley-Tyler's account of being at the helm of one of the finest gardens in England.

Reviews for Gardening with Colour at Coton Manor

"""A detailed conducted tour of the 10-acre garden, with all the wisdom modestly imparted by an enthusiastic, sympathetic and phenomenally observant garden owner. Hats off to Pimpernel Press, one of the few publishers that still take gardening seriously, for the quality of the design and colour reproduction. Altogether, this book is a gem, and one I suspect I shall plunder for ideas until it falls apart."" -- Ursula Buchan * The Field * ""Susie writes with enthusiasm in a flowing and relaxed style, and has taken glorious photographs throughout the year. Above all, what comes across is her delight in the garden, the enjoyment of working with plants, and things that make her smile."" -- Susie White * Garden Design Journal *"
