Book Description
In Margery Fish's imaginative adaptation of the traditional cottage garden style that she saw disappearing around her, she brought together old-fashioned plants and contemporary plants in the same vein. Today's mixed borders are a direct descendant of the style Margery Fish created at East Lambrook Manor in Somerset - now once again open to the public. Cottage Garden Flowers covers plants that grow easily and naturally, including easy, adaptable bulbs, perennials and shrubs, such as Astrantia, columbines, daffodils, daisies, Dianthus, foxgloves, hollyhocks, Japonica, old roses, Phlox, Primula or Virburnum.
About the Author
The late Margery Fish is one of England's most beloved gardening writers. She is the author of numerous gardening classics, including "Carefree Gardening," "Cottage Garden Flowers," and "We Made a Garden." Her books remains as relevant to gardeners today as they were when they were first published in the 1950s and 1960s.
