''A fact-drenched and beautifully illustrated book of insights into garden history that will leave you enthralled.'' GREEN (LIVING) REVIEW
A charming book, exploring the facts and folklore of gardening, its history and curiosities.
Gardening is an age-old craft, steeped in mystique and peppered with handed-down wisdom, often derived from ''sons of the soil'' who grew cabbages larger than their neighbours. If you think gardening has become too scientific and wonder where all the hands-on experience and wonder has gone, this book mines a rich seam of folkloric advice.
A Miscellany for Garden-Lovers takes a stroll through gardening curiosities from ancient Egyptian wisdom and the world of garden gnomes to rhymes and healing gardens. It is packed with information on the history of gardening and the development of tools and practices, as well as garden curiosities and folklore. Illustrated with stunning historical woodcuts and drawings throughout, this makes a perfect gift for anyone with an interest in gardens.
This fact-drenched insight into gardening history will enthral you with its diversity – from digging soil and keeping bees to early plant hunters and weather rhymes.
