Originally published in 1936, by the celebrated writer Eleanour Sinclair Rohde, this book treats the subject of herbs, 'chiefly with a view to the making of a herb garden and the use of herbs for decorative effect in th flower garden'. This book covers the uses and the cultivation of herbs in exhaustive detail and is still of great practical use today. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. Hesperides Press are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork. Contents Include : The Charm of Herb Gardens Rosemary Lavender Lore Sages of Virtue The Bergamots Paths of Thyme A Collection of Marjorams Stately Herbs Kitchen and Salad Herbs Bitter Herbs Some Herbs Used in Medicine and Magic The Making of a Herb Garden and Some RecipesKeywords: Bitter Herbs Herb Garden Eleanour Sinclair Rohde Herb Gardens Flower Garden Book Covers 1900s Thyme Sages Lore Sinclair Rosemary Lavender Virtue
