From lower cover: First published in the 1940s as My Garden in Florida, this newly revised and edited volume by Henry Nehrling (1853 - 1929) together with its also-updated companion volume, Nehrling's Early Florida Gardens, presents a remarkable record of Florida's botanical history. Nehrling's association with writers, scientists, and travelers offers us a window into the gardening community of his era, and his intriguing mixture of subjects furnishes an important source of information for those interested in Florida's social, botanical, and environmental history. In his gardens at Gotha near Orlando and what is now Caribbean Gardens at Naples, Nehrling introduced into cultivation and popularized many plant species that have since become common in Florida landscapes.
