The answer, as many of you realised some time ago, is of course ‘The Curious Gardener’ by Anna Pavord – one of the most thoughtful books to come out this year and one of those lovely gardening books you can pick up just before you go to sleep at night for a little nugget of gardening lore or a beautiful picture with which to drift off with a smile on your face.
The lucky winner is Su Harris – so congratulations Su and I hope you enjoy your in-between-Christmas-and-the-New-Year present!

Happy Christmas Eve!
Here without further ado is the very last of the windows to open in your lovely sparkly Garden Bloggers’ Advent Calendar for 2010:

So: the first letters gathered from the cultivars of each plant will give you an anagram which unscrambles to reveal the title of a recently-published book, plus the surname of the author.
All you have to do is send the right answer to sally (dot) nex (at) btinternet (dot) com as fast as your fingers can type, and the first one to get the correct answer to me gets a shiny new copy in the mail to put under the Christmas tree (or if things carry on the way they’re going, you can open it along with the champagne on New Year’s Eve).
I hope you’ve enjoyed meandering through my favourite garden blogs and posts of the year as much as I have. Happy Christmas to all, and may all your snow-bound gardens melt in time for a spectacular New Year!
