内容介绍

二十世纪最伟大的园艺作家之一的经典著作的典雅新版。

这本关于创建花园的里程碑式作品于 1956 年首次出版，此后鲜有绝版。

《我们建造了一座花园》讲述了 20 世纪中叶英国著名园艺家玛格丽-费什和她的丈夫沃尔特如何将一英亩荒地改造成一座令人惊叹的别墅花园的故事，

这座花园位于英格兰萨默塞特郡的东兰布鲁克庄园，至今仍向公众开放。

这本书生动有趣，可读性强，详细介绍了她创建世界闻名的别墅花园的过程，以及她在这一过程中与沃尔特的争斗，沃尔特更喜欢标准的郊区方式。

在这部美丽而永恒的作品中，她轻松幽默地讲述了她创业过程中的风风雨雨、成功与失败。书中涉及的主题丰富多彩，

从最适合梯田花园的百日草，到堆肥、树篱、铺设小径，再到郁金香球茎的最佳移栽和补种时间，不一而足。

本书被誉为现代别墅花园的蓝图和女权主义者的宣言，作者的实用知识、富有想象力的构思和通俗易懂的语言将鼓励和启发世界各地的园艺家。

An elegant new edition of a classic book from one of the twentieth century’s greatest garden writers.

This landmark work on creating a garden was first published in 1956 and has rarely been out of print since. We Made a Garden is the story of how Margery Fish, one of the leading British gardeners of the mid-20th century, and her husband Walter transformed an acre of wilderness into a stunning cottage garden, still open to the public at East Lambrook Manor, Somerset, England. Quirky and readable, this book details her creation of a world-renowned cottage garden, as well as her battles with Walter in the process, who preferred the standard suburban approach.

In this beautiful and timeless work, she recounts the trials and tribulations, the successes and failures of her venture with ease and humour. Topics covered are colourful and diverse, ranging from the most suitable hyssop for the terraced garden through composting, hedges and making paths to the best time to lift and replant tulip bulbs. This book has been hailed as everything from a blueprint for the creation of a modern cottage garden to a feminist manifesto, and the author’s practical knowledge, imaginative ideas and general good sense will encourage and inspire gardeners everywhere.
