Today's book recommendation: Fletcher Steele, Landscape Architect: An Account of the Gardenmaker's Life, 1885-1971 by Robin S. Karson

Karson wrote this book back in 2003.

The cover shows Steele's signature work: The Blue Staircase.

The beginning of Karson's book includes Steele's most famous quote. He said,

"The chief vice in the garden is to be merely... pretty."

SI HORTUM IN HORTORIA PODCASTA IN BIBLIOTEHCA HABES, NIHIL DEERIT.

"If you have a garden, a garden podcast, and a library,
you have everything you need."
