by Michael Weishan; Cristina Roig
From a Victorian Garden is the first gardening book of its kind a remarkable historical record and the point of departure for modern gardeners replicating the charms of a traditional turn-of-the-century garden for their own delight. Using period photographs and new full color photography together with material from journals and letters, this book remembers the magnificent Victorian garden of the Point Ellice House created more than a century ago by the O'Reilly family. It is here that Judge Peter O'Reilly and his wife Caroline and daughter Kathleen established a glorious floral landscape, perfectly maintained throughout the decades.
Horticulturally inspiring, and filled with wonderful photographs and rich, detailed text, this book takes readers step-by-step through the basics of their own heirloom gardens, to the more advanced concepts such as designing a welcoming driveway or laying a shrubbery border for year-round bloom. Bursting with ideas for gaining abundant pleasure from your own garden, From a Victorian Garden reveals one of the truly magnificent gardens of the past still very much alive today.
First line
It's very hard, when peering into a musty old print, to appreciate the true essence of the Victorian garden.
