Hidden away from well-traveled paths, the secret garden possesses magical powers of restoration and rejuvenation. With a year of lush and luxurious retreats—from a shady arbor entwined with pink rambling roses to a farmhouse garden abloom with unfolding tulips to a courtyard garden displaying sculptural forms and meditative simplicity—The Secret Garden Calendar offers serenity with every glance. Living compositions of shifting sunlight, gently moving water, abundant greenery, vibrant blooms, and a well-placed bench or chair for taking it all in, these gardens are the perfect haven from the busyness of daily life. Gardening quotations, tips, and appreciations enhance the photographs.
