Gardens in Australia -their Design and Care

Walling, Edna
1944. Oxford University Press , Melbourne, Australia

Books by the famous Edna Walling are now fairly sparse and it is a delight to read whilst still being current and as totally instructional as when Australia was looking towards the post war period when the simple joys of gardening and garden design were so very important. 150 illustrations and black and white photos adorn her writing throughout this still attractive though well-loved book.
