The Winterthur Garden Guide: Color for Every Season
Intended as a guide for the everyday gardener, The Winterthur Garden Guide offers practical advice-season by season-for achieving the succession of bloom developed by Henry Francis du Pont in his garden. This handy book highlights the design principles that guided du Pont and introduces practical flowers, shrubs, and trees that have stood the test of time-native and non-native, common as well as unusual. Lavishly illustrated, with new color photography, this handbook features close-ups of individual plants as well as sweeping vistas throughout. Whether addressing the early color combinations of the March Bank, the splendor of Azalea Woods, or the more intimate confines of the Quarry Garden, The WinterthurGarden Guide presents the essential elements of each plant, including common and botanical names; family origins and associations; size, soil, and light needs; bloom times; and zone preferences-everything the gardener needs to know for planning and replicating the “Winterthur look” on any scale.Distributed by Temple University Press for Winterthur Museum, Garden & Library
