gardening with altitude: cultivating a new western style
For the first time, you can read the behind-the-scenes stories about the Gardens' own signature gardens and plant conservation from the horticulture and research staff at Denver Botanic Gardens. Lavishly photographed by Scott Dressel-Martin, this new book, published by Denver Botanic Gardens, gives you the uniquely personal perspective of the people who cultivate the Gardens with great care and artistry. You'll also learn techniques you can try at home in your own garden.
