Summary:

"For two decades, starting in the early 1990s, Madeleine's "Notes from the Garden" delighted readers of the Queen Anne & Magnolia News in Seattle. Her Woodland garden on the south slope of Seattle's Queen Anne Hill was more than "a special place." It was her sanctuary, her prism through which sh explored the world and accomplished "much good writing." Here, in luminous prose, is the best of her work from those years, ranging from hands-on advice for gardeners and would-be gardeners to poetically charged, often wry, insights into life in the tradition of Thoreau."--Page 4 of cover.
