A little slice of paradise tucked away from the outside world—over a mossy stone wall, at the end of an overgrown path, through a latched gate—the secret garden is a sanctuary of sensory pleasures: birdsong and gently trickling water, the scent of blooming flowers, the sun-dappled beauty of layers of greenery. From Smith & Hawken comes a year of serene havens for the mind and spirit. An English country retreat overrun with roses. Through a beautiful stone archway, a sunny kitchen garden. And an irresistible invitation to sit and stay awhile: a greenery-enveloped nook furnished with a pair of chairs. Accompanying the transporting photographs are gardening quotations and appreciations.
