Summary A Garden for All Seasons captures Marjorie Merriweather Post's garden landscape, set on twenty-five acres in Washington, D.C. Working with prominent landscape architects -- the duo Umberto Innocenti and Richard Webel, and Perry Wheeler -- Post envisioned a setting with a diverse and fascinating array of trees, shrubs, and herbaceous plants, offering something to see in every season... Inspiration galore can be found in newly commissioned photography, while historic images add a layer of social history that brings context to the beautiful landscape."--from inside cover.
