Today, women are at the forefront of garden design and the horticultural world. But women’s connection with the garden has a much longer history, although their role has often been overlooked. From Eve to the seventeenth century women have been the backbone to the garden, cultivating and selling produce, growing and collecting plants. “Virgins, Weeders and Queens” ranges from the virgins perched on turf seats in medieval illuminations and the weeding women of the Tudor royal garden to queens who introduced new plants to Britain and herb wives who had to dodge accusations of witchcraft because of their arcane knowledge. In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, it explores the unsung women who invented Coade stone statues, created romantic landscapes in conjugal exile, and explored the sensual plant riches of Asia. Only in the later nineteenth and the twentieth centuries were women able assert themselves in all roles of gardening and begin to write about their experiences. Even when women’s lives were restricted the garden provided both a haven and an inspiration. Twigs Way’s lively and engaging book digs up the history of women in the garden, from the humble housewife to the venerated virgin.

Frolic through ferns, dance among the daisies, and laugh with the lilies as you experience the trials and tribulations of gardening. No garden bookshelf should be without Weeder’s Digest: The Best of Green Prints.

This book is a practical guide to identifying and using a wide range of edible varieties of weeds, and will appeal to gardeners, botanists, and horticulturalists, as well as to those with an interest in controlling their weeds in eco-friendly ways.

The main part of the book-“The Weeder’s Digest”-includes over forty-five species, with details of how to identify them and suggestions for using them for both cooking and making things. Included are the more common varieties, such as nettles, dandelions, chickweed, and elder, as well as the less common-for example, brookline and hairy bittercress. There is also a section on poisonous plants and those edible plants that should not be eaten to excess.
