Book Description
Excerpt from The Ideal GardenGardening is the most delightful of all recreations, since it allows each of its followers to set up his own ideals and in his own way to strive for their attainment. The ideal garden is an expression of the highest hopes of the gardener. Ideals that are close to his heart are materialised in the flower groups that have found form and made pro gress under his direction. They are cherished because the way of achievement led across the stepping stones of disappointment and disillusion. They represent hours of real pleasure spent among the flowers, hours that, living only as happy mem ories, have forged links binding season to season in a chain of treasured thoughts.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
