Flower grouping in English, Scotch & Irish gardens; notes & 56 sketches in colour
A gardening handbook by Margaret H. Waterfield, published in London and New York by Dent and Dutton in 1907, pairing notes on planting with 56 colour sketches of British and Irish gardens for amateur gardeners planning borders. The plates are loose watercolours reproduced in colour, showing massed herbaceous borders, flowering shrubs against walls and hedges, lily ponds and garden steps, with saturated reds and blues set against dark foliage; useful for floral colour fields, painterly plant textures and garden architecture backdrops.
