I enjoyed this "little" book

The books size is just right for sitting and daydreaming about the perfect outdoor tea party. I enjoyed the photos which were mesmerizing,and lovely. The book has ideas for various garden styles. My 11 year old granddaughter was also enthralled by the book. This book would be an excellant gift for children,as well as new, and experienced gardners.

A Tiny Tea Treasure

Diminutive in size, but not conent, this is a great gift for your garden lover friend or for your own coffee table. Ann Lovejoy walks you through five different tea gardens with colorful pictures to draw you into her world and prose that is easy to read, while being informative. She gives you specifics on design elements to consider, plantings that are proper for the style, and how to correctly harvest your bounty; all the while weaving in bits of history, anecdotes and personal ruminations to make it just chatty enough to be fun. She adds some herbal tea recipes at the end, but if you are looking for diagrams and plant by numbers, this is not the book for you. Her intent seems to be to plant seeds to stir your own imagination and I think she's succeeded.
