We Made a Garden

<p>First published in Britain in 1956 and never before available in America, We Made a Garden is the classic story of a unique and enduring English country garden. One of Britainâ€s most esteemed gardening writers recounts how she and her husband set about creating an exemplary cottage garden from unpromising beginnings on the site of the former farmyard and rubbish heap that surround their newly purchased home in the countryside of Somerset, England. Each imbued with a strong set of horticultural opinions and passions, Mr. and Mrs. Fish negotiate the terrain of their garden, by turns separately and together, often with humorous collisions. From the secret to cultivating the smoothest lawn to the art of lifting and replanting tulip bulbs to the landscaping possibilities of evergreens, the diverse elements of successful gardeningâ€”and delightful writingâ€”are bound together by Mr. and Mrs. Fishâ€s aspiration to cultivate that most precious and slow-growing qualityâ€”the fundamental character of a good garden.</p>

Gardening in the Shade

<p>A new edition of this book describing how the author and her husband created a garden out of a wilderness at their home at East Lambrook Manor in Somerset. Margery Fish knew right from the start the kind of natural effect she wanted and she came to understand more fully over the years that this could be achieved with plants not needing constant attention. Information and advice is included on the planning of an informal garden which can be maintained without too much time being taken up by routine tasks, so giving the gardener more time to enjoy the plants. The author, who is now deceased wrote several other gardening books including "We Made A Garden". Her garden at East Lambrook is maintained as she planted it and is open to the public.</p>

Revolutionary in its time, this text challenged traditional thinking that gardens bloomed only in spring and summer. Although things have moved on, gardeners are still looking for ways to make their gardens a beautiful place all year round.
