Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Continuous Bloom in America: Where, When, What, to Plant; With Other Gardening Suggestions Fourth. Calceolaria was suggested rather hastily and without first trying it in home soil. The author must mention the disappointing venture with this beautiful golden ower, which lends such a brilliant efi'ect to the English June gardens. An attempt to grow it at home from English seed produced plants of many leaves, but with insignificant owers. Pos sibly in different soil and moister climate, results might be otherwise. While my first book was devised entirely to meet the amateur's long-felt want for the ABC of garden ing, with fortnightly advice for the untrained gardener, this second book will, I hope, supply the more ex perienced gardener with a comprehensive scheme for continuous bloom, as well as abbreviated plans in a late chapter for those who would specialize in spring and autumn displays. In addition there are some other garden suggestions which may, I trust, be help ful to those who have not as yet gone deeply into this interesting subject.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The thanks of American householders are due to the author and the publishers of this book for supplying what appears to us to be the most useful and the most richly illustrated guide book to our favorite flowers. Mrs. Shelton has devoted her zeal and a great deal of her time to the task of enumerating and describing the brightest of our popular plants, and finding out what should be planted, and when and where, and what precautions should be exercised so as to avoid defects, and so as to develop the best qualities of every species. The result is a somewhat large and exquisitely beautiful book, and a great deal of pertinent information about objects which force themselves on our attention, and draw out our admiration. Taken together she finds that our favorite flowers are fit to bloom for about half of the year, or from April to October; though taken separately most of them do not continue in bloom for half so long. Next she sets herself to explain how we should sow or plant the species, by bulbs or seeds, and in what kind of soil, as well as particulars as to watering, protecting from shade, and from excessive heat or cold, and many other conditions affecting the life and behavior of the different species, and the many gardeners' accomplishments which are familiar to the specialists. She likewise enlightens us as to the improved variations of so many of our flowers which have been acquired since pre-Darwinian times, and which are largely testing the skill of the Dutch gardeners and of many others. What, when and where we are to plant come up for exposition, and her illustrations, many of them from our own neighboring states, show the success of her methods. I have compared her pictures with the illustrations of some of our gardeners' books, which give me both the names of the pictures of a great host of these most charming plants, and I have great pleasure in tendering the thanks of our readers both to the authoress and to the publishers for this most beautiful volume. -The Princeton Theological Review, Volume 14 [1916]

Book excerpt: “A Way to Garden prods us toward that ineffable place where we feel we belong; it’s a guide to living both in and out of the garden.” —The New York Times Book Review For Margaret Roach, gardening is more than a hobby, it’s a calling. Her unique approach, which she calls “horticultural how-to and woo-woo,” is a blend of vital information you need to memorize and intuitive steps you must simply feel and surrender to. In A Way to Garden, Roach imparts decades of garden wisdom on seasonal gardening, ornamental plants, vegetable gardening, design, gardening for wildlife, organic practices, and much more. She also challenges gardeners to think beyond their garden borders and to consider the ways gardening can enrich the world. Brimming with beautiful photographs of Roach’s own garden, A Way to Garden is practical, inspiring, and a must-have for every passionate gardener.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a time of climate change and mass extinction, how we garden matters more than ever: “An outstanding and deeply passionate book.” —Marc Bekoff, author of The Emotional Lives of Animals Plenty of books tell home gardeners and professional landscape designers how to garden sustainably, what plants to use, and what resources to explore. Yet few examine why our urban wildlife gardens matter so much—not just for ourselves, but for the larger human and animal communities. Our landscapes push aside wildlife and in turn diminish our genetically programmed love for wildness. How can we get ourselves back into balance through gardens, to speak life's language and learn from other species? Benjamin Vogt addresses why we need a new garden ethic, and why we urgently need wildness in our daily lives—lives sequestered in buildings surrounded by monocultures of lawn and concrete that significantly harm our physical and mental health. He examines the psychological issues around climate change and mass extinction as a way to understand how we are short-circuiting our response to global crises, especially by not growing native plants in our gardens. Simply put, environmentalism is not political; it's social justice for all species marginalized today and for those facing extinction tomorrow. By thinking deeply and honestly about our built landscapes, we can create a compassionate activism that connects us more profoundly to nature and to one another.
