(More customer reviews)This is a book that fellow gardeners will enjoy. It is not however, a book that gives pictures and growing conditions of a hundred plants. It is more an easy conversational style that takes the reader through the stages of the garden year and how Ms. Rochester approaches her garden chores. Her nature, she admits, is to being a lazy gardener and thus tilling, or removing sod, to install a new garden is bypassed by laying down newspaper and mulch instead. Her attitude to her garden is summed up in one phrase, when describing her neighbor's garden:
"..her garden is much neater than mine and possesses a sense of order that mine lacks. But I say "Each to her own." I find rigidity and neatness stifling myself, but the beauty of a garden is in the eye of the gardener."
Many of us have garden friends who eagerly lead us to their garden to view the latest flowering horticultural wonder. This is a book to curl up with in the middle of winter and be led into the authors garden for a while.
