In this volume, we consider the subject of preservation.

We visit the Goetheanum in Switzerland, and rediscover the work of Auguste Rodin and the designs of Hvidt & Mølgaard. We tour the collections of Sir John Soane’s Museum and the Oxford Botanic Garden, and contemplate memory and identity.

The publication is 140 pages, perfect bound, and printed in full colour on FSC-approved uncoated paper in the United Kingdom. It measures 210 x 274mm.

In issue 9, there’s a complete guide to growing pretty pelargoniums, a seaweed spotter's guide and a round up of the very best courses and qualifications for a job in the great outdoors. We break down the benefits of comfrey, offer pro advice on drought-tolerant plants and look at the evolution of the cottage garden.

Plus there's stories about grass, floral arranging, bees, bananas and lots of things to do, grow and cook throughout the season…

Beautiful and hardworking, Bloom is for anyone with a passion for nature: so dig in, whether you have a garden, a balcony or a windowsill.
