Journal
“Garden History is one of the foremost journals in its field worldwide and remains the journal in which to be published for those dedicated to garden history scholarship. It has a wide academic and professional readership, and from the earliest issue to the present is an enormously important and relevant source of information, providing vital support to the society’s promotion of the study of garden history, landscape gardening and horticulture. Its reviews section also offers timely and critical reflection upon recent published work in the field.”
Dominic Cole, Chairman, The Garden History Society

Contributions for future issues
The editor welcomes the submission of any article that significantly advances our understanding of the history and conservation of gardens and designed landscapes. Articles should ideally be up to 6,000 words in length, though longer contributions will be considered on their merits. Shorter articles may be published as ‘Notes’. We advise all contributors to consult our Garden History Submissions Guide.
Contributions for publication should be submitted to the editor, preferably via e-mail:
