Gift Giving

Instead of sending flowers to grieving friends, I like to send this book because it is beautiful and the flowers last a lot longer than fresh ones would.

Armchair reading for the last days of winter

As an experienced gardener, I was not looking for a how-to book. This is one of my favorite books however, for reading in those last days of winter when the urge to garden grows with each lengthening day. The pictures are luminous and inspiring. I read it every year.

Refreshing

I enjoyed Mr. Bailey's conversational style. The book is really a journal of his garden. It is not a reference book but it has some very useful tips hidden within. The pictures are marvelous! Mr. Bailey has arranged and photographed his flowers in some unusual ways that are quite appealing. I got this book at the library but I must have a copy for myself.
