简介

屡获殊荣的知名景观设计师凯瑟琳·赫尔曼（Kathryn Herman）以四季为线索，探索了她位于康涅狄格州的历史悠久的“胡椒农场”（Pepperidge Farm）庄园。这座她悉心照料并发展了三十年的二十英亩花园，被她逐步打造成多个风格各异的花园房间，为园艺爱好者提供了丰富的灵感。她以现代又不失优雅、柔和的英式花园风格著称，本书正是其设计理念的完整呈现。她将花园分区域导览，并辅以关于形式与结构、色彩、装饰、历史融合、植物层次、草甸与果园营造、多年生花园与池畔花园设计、可食用植物融入、野生动物吸引及季节性规划等主题文章，倾囊相授职业生涯积累的技巧与心得。赫尔曼相信，一座伟大的花园应能营造一系列变化的体验。她引导读者感受花园中的听觉（沙沙作响的树叶或流水声）、嗅觉（芬芳的灌木）、触觉（柔软的天鹅绒般的多年生植物）等多种感官体验，以增强人们在大自然和自家花园中度过的时光。

The renowned and award-winning landscape designer presents a four-season exploration of her own home, the beloved historic Pepperidge Farm estate in Connecticut, which she has tended and developed lovingly over thirty years, gradually developing various garden rooms with plenty of details to inspire home gardeners. The eminent and much-awarded designer is well-known and respected for her high-end, poetic gardens that are contemporary yet full of elegant softness inspired by quintessential English gardens—perfect for today's lifestyles and a lovely way to update and complement a historic house. Here, she fully explores her own twenty-acre garden, breaking down her design process by touring the garden in sections and adding thematic essays full of a career's worth of tips and tricks so all home gardeners can adapt elements of her approach themselves, including form and structure, color, ornament, incorporating history, layering plantings, creating meadows, cultivating an orchard, planning a perennial garden, creating a pool garden, incorporating edibles and vegetables, making a garden appealing to wildlife, and planning for seasonality. Herman believes that a great garden is laid out to create a series of changing experiences. She guides the reader through the importance of sound, through rustling of leaves or moving water, scent from fragrant shrubs, the touch of a soft, velvety perennial, and many other seasonal and intimate moments, all to enhance the sensual experience of spending time in nature, in one's own garden.
