When I started this blog back in May 2008, I was unaware of any other blogs dedicated to garden books.
Since then two others have started up. One Swiss and one American.
You will find them in a new links section on the RH sidebar.
Let me know if you find any more.

The Full Christo
In some ways this is a bit of a weak post to start the ball rolling for the “reinvigorated” Flange, but still, I hope, worthwhile.
If you’re like me and are a fan of a particular writer, then you probably like to have everything they’ve written. But sometimes, especially if the author is prolific and has had a long career, it can be difficult to establish all their works. For example, I know I still don’t have a full list of Graham Stuart Thomas’s books.
With that in mind here is a bibliography of the late Christopher Lloyd. I can’t claim any credit for it, because it was compiled by Erica Hunningher and I’ve lifted it from Hortus #77

Turning Over A New Leaf
It has been nearly a full twelve months since I posted anything on this blog, of that I am painfully aware.
From my perspective that is regrettable for several reasons, not least of which is that a number of Flange members have had books published over the last year.
So what’s the answer?
Well, for me to get my finger out, obviously. But I always wanted the Flange to be more than me sticking things up here, the intention was for it to be an inclusive celebration of garden books and
writing.
So I have come to the conclusion that the whole thing would be much more interesting if Flange members (old and new) had the requisite blog permissions to allow them write posts directly - subject to a light editorial touch of course.
So what do you think? Interested?
