about The Imperfect Garden
At last, a gardening book that digs past the dirt, reaching down to the soul of gardening. The Imperfect Garden follows one gardener’s journey as she discovers her "trash heap" of a garden, unearths bulbs and seedlings buried by time and neglect, and carves out a whimsical landscape dotted by decades of successful and failed gardening experiments. Expanding on the candid reflections of the author’s gardening column, The Imperfect Garden explores the elements of
determination, disappointment, and surprise that shaped both her landscape and her life. The book is “illustrated” throughout with botanical photographs by Rachel Michaelsen.
