You Should Have Been Here Last Week: Sharp Cuttings from a Garden Writer

You Should Have Been Here Last Week: Sharp Cuttings from a Garden Writer by Richardson, Tim. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9781910258354.

A career spent traveling the world looking at gardens, and meeting their sometimes eccentric custodians, has resulted in a fund of unlikely experiences and encounters. There was, for example, that alligator-infested American garden, or the time our hero set up his tent in the woods at Great Dixter in a thunderstorm, only to find he was not where he thought he was. On a more serious note, the book contains some of Tim Richardsons most influential and provocative columns as well as articles and essays on specific gardens, places, and landscape themes.
