How the Garden Grew

Maud Maryon and Gordon Browne

A first garden teaches its keeper season by season, mistake by happy mistake. Maud Maryon follows one garden through winter, spring, and summer, sharing the small triumphs and troubles of coaxing beauty from the soil. Charming, personal, and gently instructive garden writing. For the beginner who wants companionship as much as advice while learning to grow. Watch a garden, and a gardener, take root.
