Editorial policy

Bold Garden Guide aims to make garden choices clearer, with careful explanations and transparent boundaries. We distinguish general guidance from claims that need local or specialist confirmation.

Accuracy and clarity

We write to be useful and specific, check that explanations are internally consistent, and avoid presenting a general approach as the only answer. Garden conditions vary, so we identify when climate, site conditions, plant varieties, or other local factors can change what works. We do not invent testing, research, sources, or expertise.

Independence and partnerships

Editorial decisions are made separately from commercial arrangements. Any paid, sponsored, or partner material is clearly labelled so readers can distinguish it from independent editorial content. A partnership does not guarantee favourable coverage, and we do not disguise advertising as editorial advice.

Corrections and illustrations

If a reader spots an error, they can contact us with the relevant article and detail. We review correction requests and make changes when warranted, clarifying material corrections in the article. Some illustrations may be generated with AI; they are illustrative, not evidence of actual garden conditions or results.
