About this product

Product Information

Tasha Tudor's poignant art has fascinated adults and children for decades. Her nineteenth-century New England lifestyle is legendary. Gardeners are especially intrigued by the profusion of antique flowers -- spectacular poppies, six-foot foxgloves, and intoxicating peonies -- in the cottage gardens surrounding her hand-hewn house. Until now we've only caught glimpses of Tasha Tudor's landscape. In this gorgeous book, two of her friends, the garden writer Tovah Martin and the photographer Richard Brown, take us into the magical garden and then behind the scenes. As we revel in the bedlam of Johnny-jump-ups and cinnamon pinks, the intricacy of the formal peony garden, and the volumptuousness of her heirloom roses, we also learn Tasha's gardening secrets. How does she coax forth her finicky camellia blossoms in the dead of a Vermont winter? How does she train that fantastic topiary to model for her artwork? How can she keep her crown imperials from tumbling in the winds? Tasha's garden reflects a wealth of family lore, perfected through the years and years of working the soil. We may be dazzled by the beauty of the garden, but we come away from this book with practical ideas about improving our own plots of land. Paradise on earth is how Tasha describes her garden, and along with the flowers and the vegetables that provide her food, her paradise is filled with an enchanting menagerie -- corgies, Nubian goats, cats, chickens, fantail doves, and forty or more exotic finches, cockatiels, canaries, nightingales, and parrots, which inhabit her collection of antique cages. Tasha's beautiful watercolors and her enchanting anecdotes color this sublimely beautiful book.

"By savoring Martin's delightfully intimate account of seasonal activities in Tasha Tudor's Vermont garden and by gazing upon the included photographic studies of the legendary gardener in her element--surrounded by lavish flower borders--Tudor's reputation is indelibly imprinted. From the house on a hilltop (built by her son and patterned after a centuries-old farmhouse), to her clothing style (layers of garments resembling the look of a pioneer woman), Tudor epitomizes a Yankee lifestyle that will enrapture readers. In fact, Tudor would probably already be a "national living treasure" if our government bestowed the equivalent of Japan's accolade for individuals of outstanding artistic achievement."

Title tells what the book is about.
An entertaining gardening book. Bright, colorful pictures. Can get some gardening ideas for one's own garden, but mostly just a fun gardening book to look at. Worth adding it to one's gardening library. Though a truly gifted artist, Tasha Tudor was not a very pleasant person. Neither was her family. Fighting over her estate. Wonder if it has been settled?

Tasha Tudor's Garden
I bought this book because it is the most beautiful and inspiring gardening and living the simple life book that I have ever read. The photography is stunning.I borrowed it from the library more than once so I knew I needed my own copy. Tasha Tudor lives a simple but beautiful life. She tends her garden and plants year round along with her goats, chickens and other critters and captures the beauty in her paintings. She gives me inspiration even in the depths of the cold winter months. She lives in Vermont so understands waiting for the first crocus or snowdrop. I am inspired by her vitality at her age. It gives me hope as I grow older. You can continue to do what brings you joy.

Tasha Tudor's Garden, photos by Richard W. Brown
This is a lovely book and I am so pleased to have it. The pictures are beautiful with at least half of them being full page, color illustrations. The gardens are presented by seasons and include helpful hints from Tasha for creating our our garden. We get a glimpse into Tasha lifestyle and the importance of being surrounded by the things and animals she loves. She shares all this with friends and family and gives us greater appreciation of our surroundings. I wanted the book for all these reasons as well as being a great admirer and collector of all things "Tasha".
