[Anne · Rating 5 out of 5]

Gertrude Jekyll was a genius!

This book provides great insight; along with photographic examples of well known English gardens and Jekyll's analysis of them - good and bad.

She also includes plant lists for different light and moisture scenarios rock and water gardens face.

I loved reading every word!
