Product Description

Product Description
Originally founded on French and Spanish traditions of landscaping, New Orleans gardens today are a stunning blend of native varieties and bold additions from wildly varied cultures and sensibilities. Fragrant gingers and night-blooming jasmine scent the air. Live oaks and sycamores canopy stately boulevards. Decadent nineteenth-century buildings provide an exquisite backdrop for exotic, profligate vegetation. Horticultural authors Lake Douglas and Jeannette Hardy, longtime New Orleans residents and gardeners, explore this rich history. They tour public gardens and open the doors to lovingly tended private paradises - balconies draped in vines spilling over wrought-iron railings, densely landscaped patios, and expansive mansion grounds. Richard Sexton's sumptuous photographs celebrate the many traditions and cultures interwoven in New Orleans' magnificent landscape heritage.
