You might be tempted to buy this book solely for the glorious photos inside, but the truth is, it is filled with useful and expert information on how to grow and gather flowers throughout the seasons. The story of the Land Gardners - Bridgette Elworthy and Henrietta Courtauld - takes place at a Jacobean manor house called Wardington Manor in Oxfordshire, England. You will learn how they revived the dormant Arts and Crafts gardens into vibrant cutting gardens, supplying buckets of spectacular dahlias, peonies, roses and tulips to London shops and homes.
