Description:

One of the great gardeners of our lifetime has selected more than 200 of his personal favorite plants. Described in the context of their value in the garden, the plants are referenced to literature and horticulture and recalled firsthand by the great gardeners who grew them. In addition, Thomas traces the influences that shaped his own career (including surprising and illuminating nods to paleontology, geology, and music) and shares tips on cultivation from his more than 70 years of experience.
