The Italian Garden
by
Italian Renaissance gardens were the admiration of Europe and North America. They revived the classical art of garden making, as well as drawing on medieval literary traditions; but they also developed their own forms and styles, even when they began to borrow back ideas of landscape gardening from England in the late eighteenth century. But until the late nineteenth century Italy was a collection of different states, each of which developed its own kind of garden, subject to climate, situation and culture. It is this diversity that is explored here, in a series of ten essays, each focusing on one locale in order to draw out its special contribution to the Italian garden.
The Tropical Garden
by William Warren
Tropical gardens are some of the most spectacular to be found anywhere. The rich diversity of tropical flora and climates allows for an astonishing variety of forms, both native and introduced. Modern tropical gardens afford a display of striking plants from all over the world, in arrangements that blend the traditions of many countries and cultures. This highly successful compendium presents a selection of the most beautiful gardens of Hawaii, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore and Indonesia, including Bali. For this revised edition, William Warren, a widely recognized authority on the subject, and Luca Invernizzi Tettoni, the internationally renowned photographer, have added a number of magnificent new gardens. Traditional and modern types are considered, and the origins and individual features of each example are discussed in full. With a special section giving information on garden features, this will be a source of ideas and inspiration to gardeners both in the tropics and in temperate regions.
