Now in paperback, this classic book invites gardeners into some of America's most fascinating private gardens. Through over 400 colour photographs of 28 gardens across the country, Ken Druse shows how gardeners can "collect" plants for their pleasure, without sacrificing their devotion to the natural garden or abandoning good design. Listings of plant sources, societies, and organizations have been updated for this edition. The Collector's Garden is the recipient of the Garden Writers Association Quill iTrowel Award for Best Photography (Book), and The American Horticultural Society's Annual Book Award.
