Book summaryMedia reviews"In this personal, erudite and poetical book--first published more than 50 years ago--[Vita Sackville West] selects and describes 25 of her favourite flowers, from the Transvaal daisy to the Cheddar pink. In a series of short essays, she describes their appearance, origins and characteristics, and enthuses about the best ways to grow them. This is a simple yet delightful book that has retained its freshness with the passage of time. Graham Rust's watercolours, which illustrate every species, are exquisite." |
