Author description

Rachel Vogan is an expert in making the most of small gardens, re-vamping older gardens and working with people who have lifestyle blocks. Yates was founded in 1883 by Arthur Yates, whose seed business was the beginning of what was to become one of the most recognised names in Australian and New Zealand gardening. Yates has established itself as an integral part of Australian and New Zealand gardening history, but much of the company's success rests on its ability to adapt to changes in lifestyle and to continue meeting the needs of gardeners in each new generation.
