Pleasures & Problems of a Rock Garden

Pleasures & Problems of a Rock Garden

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
The late Louise Beebe Wilder was the greatest garden writer America ever produced. In this revised edition of her 1928 classic, Beebe Wilder turns her attention to the pleasures and problems of a rock garden. With a felicity of prose, she imparts profound knowledge on the many flowers, plants and shrubs suitable for a rock garden, plus advice on site selection and garden design. The fact that Beebe Wilder's books have remained in print for the better part of this century gives some indication of her enduring popularity. She is as entertaining as she is informative. The nomenclature has been updated for the modern gardener. "Sincere gardening is more than beauty-it is the release to seek beauty, which is better by a long shot than finding it done up in a parcel on the doorstep." - Louise Beebe Wilder
