The fascinating story of Frensham, considered one of New Zealand’s finest gardens.
Margaret Long planned and planted Frensham 30 years ago and shares her perspective on gardening with passion.
Frensham takes the reader on a tour through the seasons. Margaret explains her thoughts and insights about why this plant was placed here or that tree there, and what is behind her choices not just of plantings but also structures, materials, and colours. She explains subtle monthly interchanges between nature and the gardener. This is a very personal and yet informative perspective on thirty years of gardening with passion and is a book to be treasured and shared.
Divided by month and season, beginning in summer, Margaret and Juliet, in words and images respectively, reveal the story of the garden.
