No early American gardens were as well-documented as those at Monticello, which became an experimental station, a botanic garden of new and unusual plants from around the world. Betts and Perkins communicate here the nature and sources of Jefferson's intelligent venture into ornamental gardening.
The third edition includes a revised plant list, annotation of the more than 100 species cultivated in the flower garden, and new illustrations.
