A propos du livre

Biographie de l'auteur :

Gertrude Jekyll (1843 - 1942) was one of the founding figures of modern British gardening. Born in London, she studied at the Kensington School of Art and maintained a career as a painter until nearing middle age, when she turned to horticulture. Before she died, she had written thirteen books and had made plans for, or taken part in the planning of, almost 350 gardens, many of which were designed in collaboration with the architect Edwin Lutyens.

Présentation de l'éditeur :

This wonderful book contains a selection of the best and most important passages from Gertrude Jekyll's many books on gardening. It is divided into eight chapters on subjects from Design and Ornament and Colour and Scent to Flowers in the House - each one filled with sound common sense, wise advice and enormous knowledge which Gertrude includes in her books.
