In Nature's Slipstream : How to Turn Your Garden into a Haven for Nature

Carol Bruce has spent over 20 years considering how we relate to nature and the implications this has for gardening. Driven to find a balance between a wild and cultivated environment, she developed a method that combines both in a holistic system, resulting in a garden of otherworldly beauty. With lessons from the countryside and her own garden, Carol takes you on a journey where you will learn: Sustainable Design and Maintenance Methods: How to incorporate natural processes within your garden without sacrificing its beauty.
Adapting Existing Spaces: How to modify your existing flowerbeds to future-proof your garden and welcome wildlife. Personal Style and Colour Schemes: How to combine layout and colour scheming techniques to express your own personal style. A self-taught gardener, Carol designed her own award-winning garden from scratch, which harnesses self-sowing and natural selection for resilience, is free from irrigation, pesticides, and fertilisers, and acts as a haven for wildlife.
Having worked through all the trial and error herself, she now shares her knowledge, proven techniques, and planting schemes to give others a shortcut to transforming their own space – whether starting from scratch or with a garden to adapt. In Nature’s Slipstream acts as a personal gardening tutor, helping you to achieve a beautiful, manageable garden that is completely in harmony with the natural world.
