The Gardener's Essential Gertrude Jekyll (Godine Country Classic)

Rating:
Summary: Excellent summary of Jekyll's work on gardens
Review: This book has become my bedtime reading material. It offers an excellent summary of Jekyll's views on color, plant selection, the layout of beds and the philosophy of the garden. While I would have liked detailed drawings or layouts of the various gardens discussed, her written descriptions feed the imagination. I've already laid out a new garden border as a result of the insights gained, and I am inspired to read other works by Jekyll and others
