For all home games.
An organic gardener all her life and a garden
writer for more than 15
years, Ann Lovejoy be­
gan her foray into gar­
dening by growing veg­
etables and herbs, but
soon branched out into
making ornamental gar­
dens as well.
Today, her gardens
combine plants o f all
kinds, edible and beauti­
ful, in carefully arranged
communities. Her gar­
den designs and plantings
echo the layers found in
nature.
Ann groups plants with
similar needs, according
to their roles in their na­
tive habitats, and encour­
ages cooperative rela­
tionships between people
and plants.
Ann Lovejoy creates
gardens with solid or­
ganic principles in mind:
Make great soil and your
plants will grow well.
Create healthy, ecologi­
cally sound plant com­
munities, and they will
take care o f themselves.
She is frequently asked
how she gardens so suc­
cessfully. This book is
her answer.
