Gardens of Corfu 14in x 10in Hardcover 2018 By Rachel Weaving Manufacturer: Gardens of CorfuGardens of Corfu Item Number: Does Not Apply DESCRIPTION / SPECS:Greenest of the Greek islands, Corfu has a rich but little-known garden heritage. This first-ever book on the subject is as inspiring as it is informative. Illustrated by multi-award-winning photographer Marianne Majerus, it focuses entirely on private gardens, and gives a unique entrée to a secret world ranging from romantic old estates to stunning contemporary works by international designers. Rich with stories about the gardens and their creation, the text brims with insights into the island’s unusual cultural and natural history. Portraits of individual gardens show how design ideals have evolved, influenced by global and Mediterranean design trends but respecting the local spirit of place and drawing on local craft traditions. They provide a wealth of inspiration for garden makers in Mediterranean climate zones and beyond. The final chapter explores the island’s varied wild landscapes; it follows the procession of wildflowers through the seasons and illustrates local culinary and medicinal uses of wild plants. Shortlisted for the 2019 Runciman Book Prize. US National Indie Excellence Award winner, 2019. Silver Medal, 2019, Garden Communicators International.
