THE GARDENER'S MINDSET: A GARDENING BOOK｜ Books

From Stephen Orr, the former editor-in-chief of Better Homes and Gardens, comes a collection of essays and photographs that examines the restorative power of gardening, while revealing his own challenges in the garden and offering advice on growing plants and vegetables at home.The road to great gardening is littered with dead plants.Stephen Orr has written about gardening for most of his decades-long career, and now, in The Gardener’s Mindset, he helps readers to understand not just how to garden but how to think about it. Inspired by the great tradition of twentieth-century garden essay collections by writers such as Vita Sackville-West, Elizabeth Lawrence, and Henry Mitchell, Orr brings his musings and practical advice to gardeners everywhere, no matter their skill level.These pages capture the emotional sense of well-being that gardeners experience when digging in the dirt: connecting with nature while entering a state of creative flow. Orr’s distinct sense of wit and wisdom on every page lends the impression of having him by your side while on a personal garden tour.
