Gertrude Jekyll painted with plants, and her book is the palette. Season by season she designs the flower garden for color, from a March border of early bulbs through the spring wood to the great hardy border of high summer. The founding text of the color-planned garden. For every gardener who wants beauty arranged with a real artist's eye.

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.
