The Wild Garden: Expanded Edition
This combines original text, modern commentary, and stunning photography to explore the evolution of garden design, focusing on the shift toward naturalistic gardening. First published in 1870, it challenged conventional gardening practices by advocating for plant groupings that mimic natural landscapes, using both native and exotic species. The naturalistic approach has had a lasting impact on modern gardening. Over 100 photographs of gardens, including the author’s own, showcase the beauty of this approach in practice.
