Chapters of 'Gardens of Divine Imitation' by Bella D'Arcy

The story of gardens, of any gardens, is a fascinating one of time, fashion, philosophy and plants; and of the people involved: designers, artists, constructors; clients and their own ideas and desires. These stories are not only interesting, they need to be told, for reasons of preservation and conservation; for sharing knowledge amongst ourselves and for future generations.

gardens and people wishes to build up a stock of articles, stories, theses which throw light on the past and can be shared. If you have such knowledge please get in touch - see 'how to submit' section.
