Robinson, William. English flower garden and home grounds. 10th ed. *$6. Scribner.
A volume of nearly a thousand pages which sets forth the design and arrangement shown by existing examples of gardens in Great Britain and Ireland, followed by a description of the plants, shrubs for the open-air garden and their culture.
“To those who love to plan their own pleasure-grounds and make their own choice of plants, this is one of the best treatises within reach. It is moreover, written in such a pleasing style that it might even serve to wean from idleness those who now depute to professional gardeners the task of selection and care of plants.”
