The Book of Old-Fashioned Flowers
Harry Roberts and Ethel Roskruge
There is a special charm in the flowers your grandmother grew. Harry Roberts celebrates the old-fashioned blooms of cottage borders and seaside gardens, following them through winter, spring, and the full glory of June, with a chapter on growing roses. Nostalgic and practical at once, it reads like a friend's advice. Fill your beds with the sweet, familiar flowers of the past.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
