This extensive
exploration of the
evolution of American
gardens will inspire
many readers to "choose
to garden with heirloom
plants." Home gardeners
will discover untried
plants and rediscover
familiar ones from a
rich historical
perspective, while
professional and amateur
designers alike will
find a wealth of
practical information on
how to approach the
historic landscape,
document key features,
develop a list of
appropriate plants and
pursue investigations.
Early chapters briskly
review the art and
science of historic
gardens.
