"Already the Snowdrops are giving way before impatient Hepaticas and Primroses, the bare Elms are thickening with purple, and we begin to count the Gentian buds. Everywhere Nature repairs herself in ceaseless round. Only in our human lives some vacant spots there may be, where the grass will not grow green again." A gentle description of an English garden and changes throughout the year. EVB,as she preferred to be known, wrote and illustrated four garden books in the last years of her life. - Summary From the Preface

As the Snowdrops yield to the eager Hepaticas and Primroses, the bare Elms burst forth with vibrant purple, and we eagerly anticipate the budding Gentians. Nature gracefully mends herself in an endless cycle, while we, as humans, may find ourselves with some barren patches where the grass seems reluctant to bloom once more. This poetic exploration of an English garden captures the enchanting transformations throughout the seasons. EVB, as she preferred to be called, crafted and illustrated four garden books during the final years of her life. - Summary From the Preface
