Gardens of Mallorca surprises readers with its depiction of magnificent Mediterranean gardens. Riveting texts, which convey much more than just factual knowledge, are a harmonious counterparo the opulent visual component. Charlotte Seeling explains what is meant by a Mallorcan-style garden and which plants are original to the island and which have been imported. Along with the gorgeous foliage, the history of the island and its people are also treated in depth, and anecdotes about the gardens’ owners give this luxurious illustrated book a particular, and very personal, Mallorcan charm.
