"Wall & Water Gardens" is an influential gardening book published in 1901 by the renowned British garden designer and horticulturist Gertrude Jekyll. The book serves as a guide for amateurs and experienced gardeners, offering detailed instructions on designing, constructing, and maintaining gardens that incorporate both stone walls and water features. It explores various styles, including dry-walled terrace gardens and rock gardens, and discusses suitable plants for these environments, such as marsh, water, and alpine plants. See less
