Issue 12 – Summer 2022

In issue 12, you'll find a guide to ditching pricey compost in favour of the ancient practice of hugelkultur, pro hints on growing salvias, a brilliant piece on designing an immersive back garden (in even the smallest urban space) and a how-to on taking cuttings. There's also recipes for biodynamic plant remedies and advice on sowing a flowering lawn.

We're also dishing up stories on crustaceans, growers making booze and gardeners who have inherited the land they garden on.

There's top nature books with purpose, gooseberry recipes, a 101 on natural dyes and a step-by-step on making string from nettles...

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.
