Rosemary Verey's Making of a Garden
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
After falling in love with Rosemary's Garden at Barnsley House, we returned wanting to know how it was created. This book captures her garden with wonderful photos and explanations of her whole approach to garden landscaping using materials she found near and far. The parterre kitchen garden and Yellow Laburnum walk are replicated in countless garden books, but the originals and plans are here!
One of my favorite garden books

I discovered this book in our local library and realized this was one I wanted for my personal library. It's a book that I'll read through over and over again. I also own all the P. Allen Smith books. Whenever the seasons change, I pull out my gardening books to get new ideas and be inspired all over again!

My books arrived in beautiful condition and in good time. Even though they came from California to Australia, it was still much cheaper for me to buy through the internet. Very happy.
