The Victorian Gardener
only £12 + 2.50 P&P (UK) The Victorian Gardener is the first ever study of Victorian amateur gardening. It uses contemporary books and magazines to tell the story of how ordinary people learned to create their own gardens in villas, terraced houses and country cottages. Fully illustrated with contemporary drawings, photographs and advertisements, it is a unique record of how the British started gardening for themselves. |
The Passion for Pelargoniums
only £10 + 2.50 P&P (UK) The Passion for Pelargoniums is the story of how the humble 'geranium' became a part of traditional British gardens. The species pelargoniums fascinated the aristocracy in the seventeeth century, but it was the Victorians who commercialised the highly versatile hybrids, making them into one of the most popular show plants of all time. Beautiful illustrations and extraordinary stories together provide a new image for this well tempered, but often misunderstood, flower. |
