Books - The English Flower GardenBook Price: £24.00 per copy Postage and Packing: In this book William Robinson, a giant in his field, laid down the principles that revolutionised the art of gardening. Robinson's source of inspiration was the simple cottage garden, long neglected by the fashionable landscapists. He rejected the artificial and the formal: he had a profound respect for nature's infinite diversity. This book was first published in 1883. The last and definitive edition was published in 1933 and is reprinted here in full. This edition has been significantly up-dated: Graham Stuart Thomas has revised Robinson's splendid dictionary of flowers, trees and shrubs by supplying the most up-to-date nomenclature. |
