William Robinson The Wild Garden

Produktbeskrivelse

Originally published in 1870, The Wild Garden was a sensation, up-ending the conventions of Victorian garden-making, sweeping away formal ideas and artifice, and replacing it with a naturalistic approach, favouring native plants. William Robinson's book effectively introduced the idea of the cottage garden and the herbaceous border. Practical, beautiful and occasionally argumentative, The Wild Garden includes chapters on wild roses, bog gardens and 'Wild Gardening on Walls, Rocks, or Ruins.' Truly ahead of its time, The Wild Garden changed gardening for ever and remains a key work.
