“A Way to Garden prods us toward that ineffable place where we feel we belong; it’s a guide to living both in and out of the garden.” —The New York Times Book Review For Margaret Roach, gardening is more than a hobby, it’s a calling. Her unique approach, which she calls “horticultural how-to and woo-woo,” is a blend of vital information you need to memorize and intuitive steps you must simply feel and surrender to. In A Way to Garden, Roach imparts decades of garden wisdom on seasonal gardening, ornamental plants, vegetable gardening, design, gardening for wildlife, organic practices, and much more. She also challenges gardeners to think beyond their garden borders and to consider the ways gardening can enrich the world. Brimming with beautiful photographs of Roach’s own garden, A Way to Garden is practical, inspiring, and a must-have for every passionate gardener.

Excerpt from High Grade Bulbs and Seeds for Fall Planting, 1898 The growing of bulbs, other than the charms their flowers possess, has many ad vantages over that of any other class of flowering plants, among others, and a very great one, is that many of them produce their flowers in very early Spring, at a season when few other plants are in blossom. At this season, in a sheltered, sunny spot, a few clumps of Snow-drops, Crocus, Scillas, will present a mass of color, in graceful forms, while the snow yet lingers in shaded places; before these are gone the Hyacinths refresh us with their grateful fragrance these are soon followed by the Narcissus and Early Tulips, and all before vegetation is fairly started In rapid succession follow the gorgeous Parrot Tulips, Crown Imperials, and before these are gone the Lilies commence their long succession of bloom. Interspersed with these is a host of other bulbs, equally valuable for their flowers, but whose names are rarely mention ed.

Excerpt from Bulbs, Plants and Seeds for Fall Planting, 1897 After they flower and die down the bulbs may be allowed to remain in the ground to flower the next season, or if beds are required for other plants, may be taken up, soaked in water for about 12 hours, then dried and laid away for replanting. Bulbs are so reasonable in price that it does not pay to keep the old ones, especially as the flowers of the new ones are far superior to the old.
