Anna Benn to Niall Hobhouse

Niall - you should look at p640 of September’s The Garden. La Chatonniere gardens in France has a leaf shaped potager where all the paths running through are laid out like the veins of a leaf - it is VERY reminiscent of F0A’s plan.

I have always thought the D-shape should revert to a potager and wondered if you had been to Petersham nurseries where the gardens supply the big house but also a very successful cafe.

I know you want to do something more radical, but can’t potager’s be radical too?
