Book excerpt: Originally published in 1838, Nouveau Jardinier de la Louisiane, by Jacques-Felix Lelièvre, was the first of only two books on Louisiana gardening to be written in the nineteenth century. The book drew upon the confident spirit of eighteenth-century Enlightenment France, forming a bridge from the writings of French horticulturalists to an American audience. Optimistic, ambitious, and progressive, the guide urged gardeners to manage nature by acclimating new species and constantly improving native ones through the application of innovative scientific techniques. Now available in English for the first time as New Louisiana Gardener, this charming period piece and path breaking work can be enjoyed once again by gardening enthusiasts and historians alike. An introduction by Sally Kittredge Reeves gives historical context to the translation that follows, detailing the author's reasons for coming to America and his struggles to make a new life, his employment at and eventual ownership of a bookstore in New Orleans, and his reasons for compiling Nouveau Jardinier and publishing it in Francophile New Orleans. Written over 150 years ago, New Louisiana Gardener offers today's gardener a refreshing connection with other gardening enthusiasts across time. Here, in this delightful historical gem, modern cultivators can escape their fertilizers and tillers and rediscover for a moment the joy of facing Mother Nature with little more than a well-educated pruning knife and a hoe.

Louisiana irises, magnolias, and bald cypress trees, among other indigenous species, are lauded for their aesthetic appeal, robustness, and capacity to sustain local ecosystems. Additionally, numerous gardeners integrate components from Cajun and Creole gardening traditions, which prioritize the utilization of companion planting, heirloom varieties, and organic techniques. Louisiana is widely recognized for its abundant agricultural legacy, encompassing not only ornamental gardens but also commodities such as rice, sugarcane, and sweet potatoes that have significantly contributed to the state's economy and culture. Louisiana residents also exhibit a fondness for vegetable cultivation, capitalizing on the state's extended growing season to nurture essential crops such as okra, tomatoes, peppers, and collard greens. The botanical collections of Louisiana are a manifestation of the state's rich cultural heritage, as traditions from France, Spain, Africa, the Americas, and the Caribbean have all shaped the landscape. Gardening in Louisiana is an expression of community, heritage, and the native bounty of the Bayou State, spanning from the verdant courtyards of historic plantations to the vibrant backyard vegetable plots of urban neighborhoods. Louisiana presents an abundant assortment of botanical species, fauna, and gardening customs that are sure to captivate and enchant both novice and experienced gardeners alike.
