Some friendships begin over a garden fence. Mary Decker Wellcome's charming nineteenth-century talks welcome you into the world of roses, geraniums, fuchsias, and window gardens with the warmth of a neighbor sharing what she loves. Each short chapter offers practical advice on raising favorite flowers alongside the small delights of tending them: morning rounds with a watering can, the first bud after a long winter. Unhurried and openhearted, it turns flower care into good company. Bring it along to the potting bench and let the talks begin.
