What I loved:
- The author's weekly impulse-shopping for flowers without any sense of what would work in her garden (we might be twins)
- Her jumping-in-and-doing-it-before-researching-and-learning approach to gardening, resulting in lots of going back and fixing
- The passion for gardens that are a little wild, where the flowers don't stand rigidly in a row but ramble all around and invite the visitor to do the same
- Descriptions of the tourists, and being a local in everyone else's vacation
- Two cats!!!! (RIP to my own sweet Maya and Tigerlily)
- Finally, I loved the writing style, which is honest and natural but still thoughtful and polished
Quite simply I loved every bit of this book. Highly recommend!!
