The first book to explore the evolution of the Persian paradise garden from its ancient beginnings to today's modern designs, "Gardens of Persia" is available once again. Buildings, water and plants combine to give these gardens a beauty and a spiritual quality which have inspired garden design throughout time and in diverse cultures. Beginning with the oldest existing garden, Pasargadae, created more than 2,500 years ago, Penelope Hobhouse links the development of these gardens to Persia's great heritage and breathtaking historical architecture, and to their relationship to the 21st century. Meticulously researched and drawn from a profound understanding of gardens throughout the world, this wide-ranging, beautifully illustrated account offers a stimulating appreciation of gardening.
