Inspiration For Your Garden And Outdoor Daydreaming
In our next issue, we’re featuring work from Alicia Bay Laurel’s seminal book in the back to the land movement of the 60s and 70s, Living On Earth. It’s pretty amazing, as is Alicia. It got me thinking of creating a library for Wilder – a physical resource of beautiful plant and nature books from the right now to the way back. there are some classic gardening books that the library would have to include such as Color Schemes For The Flower Garden by Gertrude Jekyll (erm, 1919), but there’s a crop of great growing media that is less instructional and more inspirational that I want to focus on. One gets tired of instructions and garden plans. I’ve started earmarking some titles that get me daydreaming of getting outside:
Converted into Houses by Jeremiah O. Bragstad, Charles Fracchia
Parisian artist Rosemarie Auberson’s self titled book (Via)
Pierre Hourquet’s newest edition to his series Hobbyist
Mark Borthwick’s The Heartland
