Product Description
Antique plants-those introduced more than 100 years ago-possess a beauty unequaled by newer hybrids. Here is their fascinating story, their use in gardens, and how to grow them now. Six chapters, sumptuously illustrated with color photographs, botanical drawings, and paintings, cover all types, from wildflowers to herbs to exotics. Engaging text provides their history, ideas for combining heirloom varieties, case studies, and the expertise needed to choose, by zone, those you want to cultivate in your own garden.
