Riassunto

For anyone who has ever put on a pair of gloves, picked up a shovel, and gone into a garden in search of flowers, beauty, and inspiration, just open this book. You'll soon find out why leaves change color, who invented the flame-throwing weeder, why the Victorians prevented women from owning orchids, what happened when David Niven found Greta Garbo swimming naked in a pool, what Saffron Walden is famous for, and where the practice of kissing under mistletoe originated. All that, and over 500 more gardening gobbets, botanical amusements, and horticultural ha-has make this book a must for any garden-lover.
