It includes route maps locating each garden in the guide county by county and region by region. There are symbols clearly detailing: open season, refreshments, picnicking, toilets, wheelchair access, shop, nursery, plants for sale, events, dogs permitted, a day out with children, etc. It is a gazetteer of garden terms including arboretum, crinkle-crankle and ha-ha (with classic examples around the country).
