Authors In Conversation: ‘The Weekend Gardener’ Henry Agg

Henry Agg knows first-hand how to create a beautiful garden while balancing work and family life. After years in the corporate world, he taught himself to garden, later studying with the RHS and the English Gardening School. Now a qualified garden designer with his own practice and over 550k Instagram followers, Henry is passionate about helping time-poor gardeners feel confident to give it a go.

In his book The Weekend Gardener, Henry shares practical, accessible advice on planning, building, planting and maintaining a garden. Packed with design tips, DIY projects, time-saving guidance and seasonal tasks, the book is designed to help gardeners make the most of limited spare time. A strong advocate for the wellbeing benefits of gardening, Henry’s approach shows that whether you have 20 minutes after work or a few hours at the weekend, creating your dream garden is absolutely achievable.
