The Evening Garden by Peter Loewer

This book came out in 1993, and the subtitle is Flowers and Fragrance from Dusk Till Dawn.

This book reveals both the history and science of the night garden. The topic of night-blooming plants has always fascinated gardeners. For example, newspaper articles over the past two centuries have shared exciting reports of blooms on the night-blooming cereus.

This book came out in the early 90s and was advertised to gardeners working long hours during the daytime, equating to little time for gardening.

This book offers information about the history and the raising of night-blooming plants, as well as chapters on night fragrances, wildlife, and plans for outdoor lighting. It’s an oldie but goodie.

You can get a copy of The Evening Garden by Peter Loewer and support the show using the Amazon Link in today's Show Notes for under $5.
