Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Charm of Gardens
Once, I remember well, when I was hungering for a breath of country air, a woman, brown with the caresses of the wind and sun, brought the Spring to my door and sold it to me for a penny. The husky rough scent of those Primroses gave me news of England that I longed to hear. When I had placed my ?owers in a bowl and put them on the table where I worked, they told me stories of the lanes and woods, how thrushes sang, and the wild Cherry Blossom ?ared delicately across the purpling trees.
A ?ower often will reclaim a mood when nothing else Will bring it back.
