    Hello, I am trying to find out publication dates for this monthly magazine. I believe there are 12 or 13 issues per year, from The Chelsea Magazine Company Ltd.

    I tried contacting them but not had any joy, probably because I am not a subscriber.

    I just need a rough idea of what part of the month it is published, so I can look out for it.

    Can anyone help at all?

    Thanks.

    You could ask at your local news agent or maybe W H Smiths.

          Thankyou, @NigelJ , @AnniD and @Plantminded for your help. Thanks @NigelJ - WHSmith does sound a good bet and @AnniD , that date will give me a good idea of when to look out for it, thanks. I might try that phone number too, @Plantminded, but when I emailed, they did not reply. Maybe subscribers receive a warmer welcome!

            For anyone who is happy to read electronically, The English Garden is available on the Readly app. where the latest issue is dated 30th Oct.
            On Readly you also get:
            Garden News
            Garden Answers
            Gardeners' World
            Amateur Gardener
            Modern Gardens

            £12.99 a month, for which you would buy about 1.5 glossy mags these days I think.
            And you don't end up with piles of them cluttering up the place (you can read all the back issues on Readly too, and bookmark things to come back to).
