About the Author

Christian Lamb is a Fellow of the Linnean Society of London, an amateur gardener and garden historian. She has had several articles published in the Royal Horticultural Magazine - The Garden. Her early travels following her father and then her husband - both in the Navy - have given her a love of travel. Her subsequent passion for plants enabled her to find good reasons for following her plant heroes around the world and then create a truly unique and private garden in Cornwall. This is her first book.
