Whether it is a cup
of chamomile sipped in an English tea garden or a jasmine tea enjoyed
in a Japanese retreat, the tradition of making and taking tea in the garden
is a practice steeped in history. Ann Lovejoy has lovingly adapted this
long-standing tradition for the gardeners and tea lovers of today. This
beautifully photographed guide combines simple garden design strategies
with smart planting advice to create enchanting outdoor spaces that are
soothing, productive, and lovely to visit. Featuring five international
varieties of classic tea gardens—including a chapter on potted tea
gardens for limited space—as well as instructions for gathering the
makings of delicious and restorative teas right out of the garden, Tea
Gardens is thoroughly delightful.
