Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description: A glorious photographic tour of the public and private gardens of New Jerseyâfrom historic formal gardens of former estates, to suburb gardens, horticulturistsâ havens, and fresh takes on front yards.
Â
The most densely populated state in the nation and one of the original thirteen, home to the largest public iris garden in the country, and the glacier-swept endpoint of the last Ice Ageâfor Nancy Berner and Susan Lowry, who look to gardens as an entry to the history and culture of a region, New Jersey presents an array of surprising diversity. Its temperate climate makes it possible to grow a wide range of plants, while its complex topographyâranging from mountains to rolling hills and flat basins, the scrubby Pine Barrens and the rich Coastal Plainâdemands innovative approaches to design.
Â
The twenty-eight selected gardensâfrom Skylands, with its specimen trees, woodland and rock gardens, and lilac collection close to the New York border, to the elegant formal gardens of Short Hills, Bernardsville, and Oldwick, to a wildlife garden filled with frogs and butterflies and a lighthouse garden near Cape Mayâillustrate the ways in which New Jerseyâs long garden traditions are upheld to this day. Gemma and Andrew Ingallsâ stunning photographs bring out the manifold ways in which a garden might speak to us in its ownerâs or designerâs voice, expressing a particular point of view.
