As we revel in the bedlam of Johnny-jump-ups and cinnamon pinks, the intricacy of the formal peony garden, and the volumptuousness of her heirloom roses, we also learn Tasha's gardening secrets. In this gorgeous book, two of her friends, the garden writer Tovah Martin and the photographer Richard Brown, take us into the magical garden and then behind the scenes. Until now we've only caught glimpses of Tasha Tudor's landscape. Gardeners are especially intrigued by the profusion of antique flowers - spectacular poppies, six-foot foxgloves, and intoxicating peonies - in the cottage gardens surrounding her hand-hewn house. Her nineteenth-century New England lifestyle is legendary. Tasha Tudor's poignant art has fascinated adults and children for decades.
