More from Garden’s World magazine

Welcome

We love November • The pumpkins of Halloween are now just sadly decomposing memories on doorsteps across the land, and the spirit of Christmas (though looming and quite apparent in our supermarket aisles) is not yet at full volume. This is a restful month where the first cold spells will come to dislodge the last of the autumn colour, and we can tuck it neatly away to make compost and leafmould for next season. It is still warm enough for comfortable gardening, yet the weeds have stopped growing and our lawns have settled into winter. Enjoy the quiet – it won’t last long!

Expert’s choice Carex • It divides opinion, but this versatile sedge is ready to add interest to any garden, says Graham Rice

Energy prices drive small growers online

She’s a keen wildlife gardener and her latest book, Who Are You Calling Vermin?, defends grey squirrels, moles and dung beetles.

Adam’s pick of autumn performers • Now’s a great time to plant any of Adam’s top choices for a late-season display in years to come
