Synopsis
Since the early 1990s Leila Hadley has tended to her paradise-like garden at her house on Fishers Island, on Long Island Sound. Here she shares her experiences of seaside gardening and offers a personalized how-to book. Written in a user-friendly format full of her trials and triumphs, this book also serves as a comprehensive and practical guide for beginner and advanced gardeners alike. Starting with nothing, Leila Hadley built an all-organic garden and bird sanctuary that defies the most difficult gardening conditions. Beautifully illustrated with color photographs, the book includes maps and charts on annuals, perennials, indoor and outdoor planting, and how to keep a coastal garden thriving even in those long winter months. The book also contains substantial information for gardening in other regions and climactic conditions. The ultimate book for creating and cultivating a garden and deriving joy and satisfaction in the process, A Garden by the Sea is destined to become a gardening classic.
