Book Description
Excerpt from Garden Book, Spring 1928 I take pleasure in presenting you with this, my forty-second Annual Catalog. It has grown from an eight-page circular to this book of 128 pages. Fifty years ago, then a boy of 19. I came from Switzerland, my old home, and located here in Ne braska on a farm. And 10 years later started a little nursery 10 miles from any railroad. I have been in the same business ever since, and for almost a lifetime I have been engaged in the production of trees and seeds that, grow, and with the help of five of my sons, who were born here and grew up in the nursery and seed business, I still personally look after the growing and shipping of my products. You may therefore rest assured you get well grown, clean, upland Nebraska-grown nursery; stock and fresh tested seeds when you order from me.

Down the Garden Path
Author: Beverley NicholsPublisher: Timber Press (OR)
ISBN: 9780881927108
Category : Gardening
Languages : en
Pages : 296
Book Description
"Down the Garden Path has stood the test of time as one of the world's best-loved and most quoted gardening books. Ostensibly an account of the creation of a garden in Huntingdonshire in the 1930s, it is really about the underlying emotions and obsessions for which gardening is just a cover story. The secret of this book's success---and its timelessness---is that it does not seek to impress the reader with a wealth of expert knowledge or advice. Beverley Nichols proudly declares his status as a newcomer to gardening: "The best gardening books should be written by those who still have to search their brains for the honeysuckle's languid Latin name."As unforgettable as the plants in the garden are, the cast of visitors and neighbours who invariably turn up at inopportune moments are truly memorable. For every angelic Miss Hazlitt there is an insufferable Miss Wilkins waiting in the wings. For every thought-provoking Professor, there is an intrusive Mrs. M., whose chief offense may be that she is a "damnably efficient" gardener. From a disaster in building a rock garden---"It reminded me of those puddings made of spongecake and custard which are studded with almonds"---to a triumph in building an "avalanche" of chionodoxas---"Ah, but it was worth waiting for"---to further adventures with greenhouses, woodland gardens, not to mention cats and treacle, Nichols has left us a true gardening classic.
