The Grand Masters Of Main Gardening: And Some Of Their Disciples by horticultural and gardening expert Jane Lamb reveals and showcases "tips, tricks and techniques" applied by Maine's premier gardeners. Additionally, Lamb includes a veritable compendium of advice drawn from more than twenty years of interviews with Maine's most outstanding gardeners, horticultural pioneers, and landscape architects. Here is a compendium based upon decades of experience in making things grow in Maine soil and with Maine climates. Also included is a fascinating tour through exquisite private gardens, specialized nurseries and popular public gardens. Enhanced with almost seventy impressive full-color photographs, The Grand Masters Of Maine Gardening is a "must" for regional gardeners in the North East, but will also prove to be of immense interest to dedicated horticulturists and gardening enthusiasts anywhere else in the country.

Interesting articles. Tried to visit the heather garden at Wolfe Neck Farm, though, and it was so long gone that the staff had never even heard of it.
