Each picture is accompanied by a verse, written by nature-inspired gardener, artist and poet Margaret Thornton. Her three daughters also contributed poems.

Autorenporträt
Margaret Thornton was a scholar, intellectual, artist and poet, as well as a lover of nature and a fount of botanical wisdom. The daughter of an airforce pilot, she travelled the world during her youth, later marrying an architect, with whom she had three children. Unusually, she was born, lived and died in the same house - an unpretentious weatherboard in Melbourne, Australia.
