Author bio

Kate Bradbury is an award-winning author and journalist, specialising in wildlife gardening. She edits the wildlife pages of BBC Gardeners' World Magazine, and regularly writes articles for The Telegraph, The Guardian, RHS magazine The Garden, and BBC Wildlife and BBC Countryfile magazines. She is the author of several books, including RHS How to Create a Wildlife Pond (DK).

One tree, in one garden. Can it really make a difference?

In RHS The Tree in My Garden, award-winning wildlife author Kate Bradbury reveals the amazing effect planting a single tree in your garden can have - and dares to imagine what would happen if every gardener up and down the country did the same. Combining practical gardening advice, eye-opening scientific research, reflections on the cultural importance of different species, and evocative accounts of how vital trees are for countless different forms of wildlife, this book will leave you in no doubt that every garden needs a tree.

The book features a directory of 50 key species, each one beautifully illustrated by Lucille Clerc and packed with information about each tree's appearance, care needs, carbon sequestration ability, and the wildlife it supports.

No garden should be without a tree. Plant one, watch it grow - and become part of something bigger.
