Synopsis
This final garden book by Nichols (1898-1983) contains all the wit and humor of his previous books, with the addition of several excruciatingly funny passages about cats and society personages. Centering on his garden at Sudbrook Cottage, this volume follows on the heels of Garden Open Today (1963). Sweet b&w line drawings by William McLaren. Annot

Top Cat Gardener Nichols
11 Jan 2007
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
Beverley Nichols writes, as always, with gentle, dry humor in Garden Open Tomorrow. He provides a refreshing look at a bygone day and reminds the reader, by example, that a garden is, indeed, a place of constant renewal, even when it makes much work for the gardener. Among his several cat companions, he is tops!

Super book!

Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I had to have a journal on my lap while reading this book in order to write down all the wonderful ideas and new plants!
Heftier in gardening tips, etc than his prior books (which included humorous distractions of country life and people,) it may surprise some who expect more of the same. However, if you love him and love gardening, get this book!

Not as good as some of his others

In this book Nichols mostly gives instructions on gardening with different plants, but I prefer his other books which have more characters and outlandish situations in them. His enthusiasm never wavers and is always contagious. Good for Nichols fans, but not what I would consider among his best.
