Houndstongue. Ragged robin. Costmary. Pennyroyal. Allheal. These plants, whose very names conjure up a bygone world, were among the great variety of flowers and herbs grown in Americas colonial and early Federal gardens.

For each plant, an elegant period handcolored engraving, watercolor, or woodcut is presented along with glorious new photographs by Barbara Temple Lombardi.This book is a dazzling treat for armchair gardeners and for those who have visited and admired the famous gardens of Colonial Williamsburg. It is also an invaluable companion for twentyfirstcentury gardeners who will appreciate the specific advice of a master gardener on how to plan, choose appropriate species for, and maintain a beautiful, historic flower and herb garden.The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation is a notforprofit educational institution that operates the worlds largest living history museum.Published as unjacketed version in association with the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation
