Herbs and Herb Gardening

Originally published in 1936

by the celebrated writer Eleanour Sinclair Rohde, this book treats the subject of herbs, chiefly with a view to the making of a herb garden and the use of herbs for decorative effect in the flower garden. This book covers the uses and the cultivation of herbs in exhaustive detail and is still of great practical use today. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. Hesperides Press are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
