Heritage, or traditional, gardens and heirloom seeds are joined at the hip, but previous books have separated them. This is the first holistic look at several of the most vibrant trends in contemporary horticulture, both in vegetables and flowers.

The basics of heritage garden design from California to the East Coast are here, with special attention to the Pennsylvania four-square garden.
