Description

"In Plants in the Getty's Central Garden Jim Duggan brings together nearly four hundred descriptions of the growing habits and characteristics of individual plants. The entries are beautifully illustrated with photographs by noted garden photographer Becky Cohen. Duggan's suggestions for cultivating the plants he describes - many of which will be unfamiliar to gardeners in Southern California - make this a colorful and informative guide to the garden designed by artist Robert Irwin." "Included in this book are a foreword by Robert Irwin; three essays by Jim Duggan that trace his involvement with the project; a map of the Central Garden; a plant location guide; and an index of scientific and common names."--Jacket.
