Culinary Gardens: From Design to Palate

Author: McClur

Susan McClure, author of The Herb Gardener: A Guide for All Seasons, gives every gardener just the right mix of information to create your own ornamental, edible garden. The book contains eleven designs for all types of theme gardens - Mexican Sun Garden, American Heirloom Garden, Italian Villa Garden and other - with tips on how to make it your very own "highly liveable" space. But more than just instructions on how to design and what to grow in your theme garden, McClure takes you on an odyssey of harvesting and preparing the abundant rewards from your garden.

Combining McClure's beautiful full-color photographs, original full-color garden designs, plant portraits, recipes and helpful hints, this book is a step-by-step guide for anyone who gardens. With the theme that our garden space is our living space, just as our house is, why not plan a garden that satisfies our personal needs for beauty and liveability, while allowing us to reap the harvest of healthy, organic foods.

Library Journal

McClure's (The Herb Gardener, Garden Way, 1995) book on vegetable gardening emphasizes garden design and recipes more than actual vegetable growing. Popularizing the concepts of Rosemary Verey by using vegetables to please the eye as well as the taste buds, McClure provides designs for 11 different vegetable gardens, from country casual to a formal Elizabethan knot garden. Along with a detailed garden plan, she lists specific varieties of recommended vegetables, fruits, herbs, or flowers and finishes off each chapter with related recipes. Growing guidelines for each plant are contained in the chapter "Encyclopedia of Crops." McClure's designs elevate vegetable gardening from the traditional backyard plot to front-garden eye catchers, but libraries will have to judge whether local interest justifies the price.Molly Newling, Piscataway P.L., N.J.
