continuing with some of my favorite books about the garden...
derek jarman's garden & planted are two of my oldest and most favorite gardening books. they are full of inspiration and also guidance on how to garden. the former is more about how gardening can be a creative outlet; the latter has concrete information that you can put to use.
the imagery in both is just gorgeous. photographs by howard sooley & lorry eason/michael wildsmith convey the emotion of plants and the everyday beauty that they provide.
in the book about jarman you see the oasis he created by the shore.
his tiny cottage and pebbled-scape became his refuge.
sturgeon's book has tips and info about the basics of gardening and growing, but the photographs are some of the most beautiful i have ever seen, in a gardening book, or any other.
enjoy.
