Summary:From street gardens in LA to grand country estates in Auckland; tiny rental gardens in Sydney to plant packed suburban Brisbane backyards, this book is a visceral and immersive exploration of the exceptional and ordinary ways people around the world find truth, beauty, purpose and connection through the act of gardening. The book is a culmination of the five years the author and photographer have been pondering questions of plants, people and connection on The Planthunter online magazine. It's a reflection of our complimentary creative vision, shared aesthetic sensibility, and commitment to truthful storytelling. adapted from publisher's website.
