Over the Fence and Overlooked by Kyleigh and Michael Simpson
Over the Fence and Overlooked - Traditional Plants in Queensland’s Gardening Heritage is a title that suggests that there are treasures to be found in older gardens when you look carefully. The title is an appeal to collectors of old-fashioned ornamental plant varieties and to enthusiastic amateur garden historians. This is not a book about garden design concepts but about plant material and perhaps design dictated by the plants themselves. The Authors attempt to recognise useful overlooked plants that they already grow, for the reader to learn about the qualities which make these plants the basis of a good garden. ISBN 978 1876344 66 5
